Police Arrest the Actual Slayer in Rosenthal Case
The case centers on Lieutenant Charles Becker charged with instigating the Rosenthal murder to silence exposures of police blackmail. Becker’s lawyer John Hart aided an affidavit that Rose says was false, claiming the $1500 mortgage money came from Rose not Becker. Rose surrendered after Becker allegedly promised protection, and district attorney Whitman says Hart’s testimony corroborates Rose’s account of Becker’s involvement.
