Clever Bunco Game Shown Up In Court
In a police court yesterday morning a man named Frank Smith faced a deceptive arrest on a vagrancy claim. Prosecutor Nick Rotering labeled him a professional "modder" who duped prominent businessmen out of money by posing as a deaf student seeking education. Attorney T. G. Denny initially vouched for him, but a bystander identified Smith as the con artist. The case unfolded amid a crowd and a dirty South Main alley hangout, with reports of alcohol and a group known as "whites" involved.
