Indicted Legislator Gibson Acquitted In Illinois Case
In Sangamon county Illinois Judge Creighton instructed the jury to return a verdict for representative M H Gibson after defense argued the charge centered on a building and loan resolution not linked to legislative duties. Secretary Thomas Bunn testified no money was paid for influence, leading to acquittal as the resolution was never acted upon in the house.
