Key witnesses took the stand on the third day of the John Feit murder trial.
John Feit is a former priest accused of killing a McAllen school teacher in 1960.
Eighty-eight-year-old Dale Tacheny gave an emotional testimony Monday as he went into detail about Feit’s alleged confession of Irene Garza. Tacheny said Feit confessed to the murder while they were both at a monastery in San Antonio.
Tacheny says he didn’t tell anyone of Feit’s alleged confession because, as a monk, it was not his place to judge—only to figure out what to do. Tacheny went on to say after some time, the monastery concluded Feit was not fit to live there, and sent him away.
