Biography

G. A. Fanning was sentenced to a year and six months in prison. He served in Leavenworth Penitentiary from March 4, 1919, to June 18, 1920.

1920s custody review: The Senate hearing lists G. A. Fanning under eastern Oklahoma: sentenced March 4, 1919 to eighteen months and a $500 fine under Section 3, Title I. The former structured one-year sentence is corrected. March 4 is documented as sentencing, not independently as Leavenworth admission; the inherited admission and June 18, 1920 release are retained pending the original case file. NARA identifies his existing photograph as inmate 13689. Arrest remains unverified.
