Wrongfully Reported Arrest Also Marks Van Brocklin’s Case
Elmer Van Brocklin, linked to the 1921 murder case of Mr and Mrs Van Brocklin, faced disorderly conduct charges with a 15 year old girl in Nashua. Bond set at 25 dollars, he reportedly left the country but later appeared, pleaded guilty, paid a 16 dollar fine, and was released. He remains in Nashua off and on through the summer, contrary to newspaper reports of bond forfeiture. Kneeskern case remains connected as he was a major state witness in that conviction.
