Convicted Slayer Hendershot Faces Fresh Gun Charge Trial
Kenneth Hendershot, serving a manslaughter sentence for the 1950 Clare attorney Naumes slaying, faces a renewed trial on a 1950 concealed weapon charge. Prosecutor James Bicknell plans to seek a special assistant to push the case, which could extend prison time and affect parole prospects. The move relies on a Michigan statute requiring action on old charges against confined criminals. The murder trial ended with 14 1/2 to 15 years imprisonment after the jury failed to convict on murder.
