Crowe Attacks White Testimony in Leopold Loeb Case
In Chicago on August 2 the state attorney Robert E. Crowe cross examined Dr. William A White head of the government hospital for the insane on Leopold and Loeb. Crowe pressed to obtain the original report and questioned whether White found the defendants insane or merely mentally sick. The exchange grew sharp as Crowe challenged definitions of dementia praecox moral insanity and criminal intent. The judge sustained several objections and the session ended with continued questions on legal insanity and responsibility.
