Decision in Bay Point slot machine case postponed
Judge Gardiner R. Deering kept a ruling in the Bay Point gambling machine case of Herman A. Spinney pending until Monday to allow defense time to file a brief. Spinney, who pleaded not guilty, was held on $100 sureties. The case stems from a Sept 30 incident when a similar warrant led to Spinney’s acquittal after deputies seized a nickel slot machine from his shack on the Bay Point wharf. The State argues the machine’s presence in Spinney’s building proves maintenance for gambling. the defense claims police used subterfuge and that Spinney did not grant permission for the deputy to play. The machine remains held.
