Bush may face perjury charge over Colbert estate claim
The attorney general contends Bush testified he was the sole living Colbert relative to claim the estate. Sheriff Quinn attempted to move the 72 year old from a hospital to arrest him, but Bush was too ill to move. Prosecution aims to hold Bush accountable for alleged false testimony about kinship. The article notes Bush’s prior denial and later confession of seeking the estate, and mentions his Minnesota connections and lack of contact for decades. Premier Balfour later meets King Edward in London.
