Major Cresson Loses Libel Suit Against Texas Paper
In Fort Worth Texas the Fourth Court of Civil Appeals affirmed a San Antonio trial verdict finding Major Charles C Cresson not entitled to damages in a libel case against the Northam Carter Publishing company publishers of the Fort Worth Star Telegram. The suit grew from a 1924 Congressional Committee report on Grover Bergdoll's escape and alleged Cresson involvement. Justice Fry held the excerpted report could not be fair and impartial yet protected as a privileged legislative document. The ruling upholds the defendant and dismisses the libel claim.
