Manheim case dominates Missoula jury session
After nearly 30 hours the jury in the Childers case failed to agree and was discharged with a 10 to 2 split for acquittal. The Wolf Manheim case then proceeded, detailing stolen junk from Northern Pacific Railway, alleged ownership questions, and defense claims that Manheim did not know of the theft. The defense argued the junk was bought by his wife. The trial likely resumes the next morning.
