Daniel S. Voorhees (born 1913) was a transient〔''Beth Short Slaying Suspect Jailed After Asserting Admission of Crime'', January 29, 1947, Pg. 2.〕 restaurant porter who confessed to the murder of Elizabeth Short on January 28, 1947. He asked members of the Los Angeles Police Department to meet him in downtown Los Angeles, at 4th Street and Hill Street (Los Angeles). Voorhees was eliminated as a suspect in the Black Dahlia slaying because his handwriting did not match that in the killer's note.〔''Black Dahlia Avenger'', Stephen Hodel, Arcade Publishing, 2003, pp. 174.〕 He spent the night in the Los Angeles County Jail after he told LAPD detective E.R. Barrett that he met Elizabeth Short on Hill Street two weeks earlier. He claimed to have taken her for a ride on a Wilshire Boulevard bus. He did not say where the two of them went or whether they saw one another later. A police psychiatrist delayed a lie detector test on Voorhees until he recovered from a ''befuddled and bewildered'' state, which he was suffering from. Voorhees said that he met Short in 1941 and dated her several times. He refused to say where he met Short on these occasions. On the day Short's body was discovered, January 15, 1947, Voorhees registered at a hotel at 1012 East Seventh Street in Los Angeles, at 10:45 A.M. He checked out of the hotel on the morning of January 16, 1947. The hotel owner stated that he had not seen Voorhees after this date.〔 ==References== 〔 * * * * 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Daniel S. Voorhees」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
