Alexander Sparks, the first husband of Doris Dazay, at the murder trial of George Dazey, Los Angeles, 1940

Description:
Alexander Sparks, the first husband of Doris Dazey, who was allegedly murdered by her second husband, George Dazey. At the trial, Sparks testified that he had remained friendly with his ex-wife and the two had occupied the same hotel room in 1934. This aided the prosecution's claim that George Dazey had committed murder because he was unsure of the paternity of a boy born to Mrs. Dazey in 1935.

Dr. George K. Dazey and his third wife, Dorcas Dazey, at the trial where Dr. Dazey is accused of the murder of his second wife, Doris S. Dazey, Los Angeles, 1939-1940

Description:
Dr. George K. Dazey and his third wife, Dorcas Dazey, at the trial in which Dr. Dazey is accused of murdering his second wife, actress Doris S. Dazey, in 1935. Doris Dazey's death was originally believed to be suicide by monoxide poisoning. However, witnesses claimed that Dr. Dazey had been boasting about committing the "perfect crime" and a night watchman testified to witnessing Dazey carry a woman's body from the house to the garage on the night of the murder. Other factors complicating the trial were the paternity of Doris and George Dazey's child, Doris Dazey's possible mental illness, and false testimonies from some of the witnesses. Dr. Dazey was ultimately acquitted of the crime.
