Walsh loses bid to overturn five year banking fraud sentence
John R. Walsh, Chicago banker and railroad magnate, had his five year penitentiary term for federal banking law violations upheld by the United States Circuit Court of Appeals. The decision, read by Judge Grosscup, preserves the lower court finding that Walsh violated the law in managing the Chicago National Bank. The ruling rejects claims of lack of criminal intent, stating that a reckless act is equivalent to a willful one. If the Supreme Court does not intervene, Walsh will serve time at Fort Leavenworth, Kansas.
