Shepherd Wins Point in Murder Case Trial
William D. Shepherd on trial for the alleged murder of Billy McClintock scored a major courtroom victory as his lawyers under cross examination chipped away at Dr. Amant Rongetti’s credibility. Rongetti admitted uncertainty about whether Shepherd sought his advice on typhoid fever germs. The defense portrayed Rongetti as potentially unqualified, and the judge adjourned the court to 3:00 p.m. after questions about significance of the visit. The state planned one more witness before Isabelle Pope testifies. Also noted was a local sale of ferns at Custer's Gardens.
