Blames Mormonism for Pulitzer Murder Drives Witnesses
New York, Sept. 26. Mrs. L. M. Willard, mother of William Hooper Young, the accused murderer of Mrs. Anna Pulitzer, becomes a key witness in the push to prove insanity. She asserts Mormonism led her son to crime, cites blood atonement, and recalls Brigham Young’s era as teaching the doctrine. Her statements portray Young as driven from home to wandering ways, linking his fate to church influence and weak morality.
