Girl Is Center Of Probe At Mercer

Special Assistant Attorney General Harry A. Estep focused on Janie Graham 20 as he probes the Ever etts Wilson dairy farm triple slayings near Mercer Pennsylvania last October 7. Estep, a former congressman, questioned Wilson for over two hours with stenographic statements. The jury acquitted Wil Jigmi Morell in two murder counts and convicting him of a third degree manslaughter, prompting the AG to take charge of the new inquiry. Miss Graham worked on the farm as did Morell. Wilson remained free on $1,000 bail in a contempt of court charge tied to his failure to appear before a grand jury that indicted Morell. His attorney noted Wilson had been ill.
