Prosecutor Fails to Tie Clothing to Murder Link
In Ottawa Illinois on January 28 the state could not positively identify a clay covered suit as Harry Hill’s tying a gap in circumstantial evidence in the murder of his mother. Sidney Iskowich testified he sold Hill a similar suit and saw him in a garden last August as a fire burned in the incinerator on August 4.
