Suspect In 3 Death Attempts Found Slain
LAKE WALES Fla Emmett Donnelly a 61 year old lawyer accused of plotting to kill three wealthy people by hiring a gunman was found dead at his home in what police described as an apparent self inflicted shooting. His body lay under poinsettia flowers with a shotgun at his side. Coroners and officials ruled a death by own action and declined an inquest. Durden the other accused man was released on bond. Investigators said Donnelly planned to profit from his position as confidential attorney for the three clients and that the motives centered on estates and charitable bequests that could be manipulated after his death. The probe also examined if Donnelly used dummy charities to funnel funds through Mrs Roach to objects of his control. Durden had received more than $9 000 from Donnelly this year and gave no clear explanation.
