Lee's Defense in Millard Lee Murder Case Focuses on Insanity
Millard Lee, accused of killing Miss Lilla May Suttles, plans an insanity plea at arraignment in superior court on June 3. Physicians hired by the defense have examined him, with notes from Drs Nicolson Greens Hubbard and Pinckney. The defense argues long-standing mental unsoundness and seeks to show no motive or jealousy behind the crime. The crime at Hen Hill shocked the community as Lee was captured the following morning, and the case opens when Judge Candler convenes court.
