Jury told Morell at farm during killings in Mercer case
In Mercer Pennsylvania the Janice Graham murder trial heard deposition testimony placing William Morell at the Everett Wilson farmhouse around 11 A M on the day of the deaths. Howard Stump, bakery truck driver, said Morell approached his truck and later spoke with Mrs Wilson at the farm as the killings were alleged to have occurred. Stump identified Morell at the Mercer County jail last May, and the defense pressed that Morell’s alibi was supported. Janice Graham testified she was forced to accompany Morell after the slayings and that she could not escape.
