Loeb aided in asinding trace of dead youth
Chicago July 25 A sensational account emerges in the Leopold Loeb murder trial as reporters Howard Mayer Alvin Goldstein and James Mulroy testify Loeb aided their investigation by canvassing drug stores to locate clues about Bobby Franks disappearance and the killers. Loeb suggests leaving a clue at a drug store and discusses the body’s condition with Mayer. He also gauges how Franks might have acted, describing the victim as the type he would choose for kidnapping. The testimony reveals Loeb’s active involvement while he and Leopold maintain composure during witnesses. A separate report notes a mob attack on Dorothy Grandom near Myersville Maryland, with the 12 year old victim tarred and feathered and linked to Martinsburg West Virginia.
