Uganda police accused of stealing evidence in poll dispute

HOUSTON (AP) — An 83-year-old Arizona man accused of killing a Texas teacher and ex-beauty queen when he was a priest in 1960 is set to be extradited to Texas. Authorities say John Feit was scheduled to be flown Wednesday from Phoenix to South Texas, where he will be booked into the Hidalgo County Jail in Edinburg. Feit is being brought to Texas after waiving the right to extradition following his Feb. 9 arrest in Scottsdale, Arizona. He was indicted for the killing of Irene Garza, a 25-year-old school teacher. Authorities allege the then-27-year-old Feit killed Garza 56 years ago after hearing her confession at a Catholic church in McAllen. An autopsy determined Garza, who was named Miss All South Texas Sweetheart 1958, had been raped while unconscious and was beaten and suffocated.
