Jury Finds Miller Not Guilty After 50 Minute Deliberation
In Abilene Texas on Tuesday night a jury acquitted Ranger Miller of aggravated assault against Albert Tessman after a brief 50 minute deliberation. The trial featured testimony about a pistol strike and alleged welt, with self defense instructions given by Judge Nelson Lytle. Miller left the courtroom smiling as rangers and relatives greeted him. In related notes from nearby towns, cattleman Tom Ross received a 20 year sentence for murder, and heavy rains caused big river rises and transport disruption in Uvalde and Georgetown areas.
