Hower Found Guilty In Wife Operation Case
A circuit court jury found Jesse Hower guilty of a criminal operation upon his wife and ordered jail detention pending sentencing. Judge Erwin will hear a motion for a new trial Friday with possible sentence ranging from three to fourteen years. Hower, a former street car conductor, was accused after his wife died and named him in a confession obtained at Lutheran hospital. Prosecutor Dan B. Ninde led the case. Hower denied the charges, claiming the act was performed by a physician. The story notes a separate error about a slander suit involving Frank Edsall and Albert Grover, which ended with Edsall paying costs after Grover was cleared.
