Late testimony favors Darrow in bribery case
Judge Hutton allows Tom L Johnson to testify about Bert Franklin’s confidential attorney relations on the bribery charge involving juror George Lockwood. The Franklin trial was set in department 12 before Judge Cabaniss and continued indefinitely as prosecutors say more evidence accumulates. Johnson said he acted as intermediary for immunity talks with the district attorney and that Franklin claimed neither Darrow nor Davis bribed him, naming only a mysterious man who supplied $4,000.
