Dearborn Child of Chess

Abe Turner (1924–1962) was an American chess master. He had a chess rating over 2400 and played several times in the U.S. Chess Championship. He was best known as a chess hustler who played blitz chess for money, and was one of the few American masters who had a winning record with Bobby Fischer.

Turner was found stabbed to death in the basement of an Upper West Side building where he had been working as a clerk for Al Horowitz for the magazine Chess Review. He had been stabbed nine times and his body was placed inside a safe. He was found by the superintendent of the building later that afternoon. After the body was discovered the police arrested a clerk-typist employed by the publication. The suspect said he killed Turner and dragged the body along a corridor to the safe that in the basement. The suspect said he had thrown the knife into Central Park. It was never found. He was quoted as saying he killed Turner because Secret Service agents told him to. Turner, who was 38, never married and lived with his father.

THE PROBLEM WITH CHESS IS ALL THE VIOLENCE IT ENCOURAGES. THE MURDER IS NEVER AS BRUTAL AS THE COVERUP. WHICH MAKES NO SENSE, SEEING AS DEAD BODIES ARE GARBAGE.
