Darwin Loses Court Bid In Hope Rothwell Murder
HARTFORD (RP) Roy F J Darwin, jailed for second degree murder in the 1963 death of Hope Fern Rothwell, had his petition rejected by the state high court. The decision noted the case centers on voluntary statements and re-enactment by Darwin after multiple lie detector tests and hypnosis attempts. Darwin, from Andover, was convicted in Vernon for strangling the 17 year old 4 H Club member in Bolton and remains in state prison.
