Jury Deliberates Six Hours Before Life Prison Term For Murder
A jury took nearly six hours to convict John West of murder and sentence him to life in the state penitentiary. The trial included witnesses describing the defendant’s actions and the victim as a loving husband and father. The court recessed after the verdict, and West was to be moved to the prison following further arrangements and apologies to the widow and children.
