UNITED STATES V. De GEORGIA
420 F.2d 889 (9th Cir. 1969)
NATURE OF THE CASE: This was an appeal from a conviction for stealing an automobile.
FACTS: De Georgia (D) stole a car from the Hertz Corporation in New York. It was
eventually recovered in Tuscon, Arizona 70 days later. D confessed in writing that he stole
the car. The issue at trial was the corroboration of that out of court confession. An
employee for Hertz took the stand and testified about the computer records kept by the
company and his access to them and their query telling him that the car was last rented on
June 30, 1968, and that there were no other records for its rental. D objected on grounds of
hearsay. D was convicted and appealed.
