Jury returns second degree murder verdict in Heston case
In a four hour deliberation the jury found Bert Heaton guilty of second degree murder in the killing of Benton Tracy during an escape attempt. The judge sentenced Heaton to life in the Oregon penitentiary after the verdict was read, with defense attorney Blyea arguing constitutional technicalities and the jury’s careful consideration. The defense contended the indictment lacked an essential element and noted errors in the trial record while the state’s attorneys urged first degree considerations but the jury settled on second degree.
