Description

A jury found Carroll Eugene Goodman and Ronald James Phillips guilty of burglarizing and stealing from the Gassman Hardware
Store in Lathrop, Missouri. Following denial of their post-trial motions and in accordance with the verdicts, each defendant
was sentenced to a term of seven years for burglary and an additional consecutive term of three years for stealing. Through
their pretrial motion to suppress and continuing complaints, defendants have well preserved their objections to the involved
searches and seizures which produced from their persons the evidence which linked them to the subject felonies. The defendants
will be discharged. Suspicions of the night telephone operator in Lathrop (a city of 1,000 population) were aroused at 2:25 a.m. August 16, 1968,
when "the voice of the boy or man" she did not recognize initiated a call from the Gassman store to Kansas City. The operator
contacted Mr. Gassman at his home concerning the propriety of the call and he "asked her if at all possible to keep them on
the line, when they answered in Kansas City ... the fellow ... on the Gassman line hung up." When Gassman, the county sheriff
and a highway patrolman inspected the store premises at about 2:45 a.m. they found it uninhabited; the backdoor had been forcibly
opened, and a torn dollar bill and "between eighteen to twenty-five dollars" in "nickels, dimes, quarters pennies" had been
removed from the cash register. No one had been seen entering or leaving the store. The sheriff possessed no inkling of the
identity of the person who made the telephone call and had "no way to tell how many" people were involved. In his own words,
"I didn't know who I was looking for." The sheriff told a newspaper deliveryman that "if you see anybody or anything unusual
let me know," and instructed the city marshal of Lathrop that "if he saw any strangers to bring them regardless of who they
were."
