Defence Has Host of Witnesses to Show Thaw Insane
The defense aims to prove Harry Thaw is a victim of hereditary insanity as Evelyn Thaw prepares to tell her life story. Gleason argues Thaw’s mental illness spans generations and that the murder of Stanford White was driven by delusions of danger, with witnesses including Stanford White’s son Lawrence White and others detailing the scene at Madison Square Garden.
