Trial in Fifty fourth murder case ends with shooting
Dr Jenkins stands accused of abortion and murder in the case of Miss Mary Wheat. The trial opened with testimony from Mrs Smith and others detailing the operation. A gunman, Halligan, fired during the proceedings, fatally wounding a bystander and prompting a chaotic halt as court officers restrained him. The wounded defendant was disarmed and the court adjourned amid pandemonium. The defense argues the operation was a medical necessity to save the patient, while the state presses circumstantial evidence of criminal intent. The outcome remains unresolved as the trial was cut short by the shooting.
