Twelve true bills by county grand jury at Pomeroy
The May term grand jury at the Pomeroy courthouse returned twelve true bills from 22 cases. Two allege manslaughter and reckless driving in the death of Roy Joe Bailey, who was thrown from a car driven by Clifton Icenhower and run over by a second car driven by Romine. Other true bills cover burglary, robbery, non support, forgery, embezzling, and insufficient funds checks. Jurors toured the county jail after presenting evidence, with Prosecuting Attorney James B. O'Bren's official record to be filed today.
