Oft-Convicted Thief Escapes Life Term in Spite of Record
George W. Riddle Jr. 32, with a prior criminal record, faced possible life imprisonment under the habitual criminal act for breaking and entering Fitch Drug Store and theft of cash and stamps. The State used a 1940 burglary prior, leading to a one-to-15 year term. Judge Thompson urged reform. Riddle had escaped the penitentiary twice and was jailed for auto theft during one absence, with four new charges dismissed.
