Move to Slice Horton's Term
Pierre May 11. Commutation of sentence from five to two and a half years for Fred Horton from Hutchinson county was recommended to Governor Bulow by the state pardon board at its May meeting. Nine of the few applications were refused. Horton was convicted of first degree robbery and sentenced in February 1928 to the penitentiary. The board noted his good prison record and that Judge Beck believed he could be reclaimed if given another chance. The record also cited witness David Wipt and statements by William Shenk and Clair L. Kints supporting commutation as beneficial to all parties.
