Thick set man could identify suspect in Young murder case
James Maley, a saloon keeper, testified he met Young and an unknown man after noon Monday at his saloon. He described the man as about 5 feet 6 inches, 35, with side burns, light mustache, thin pointed nose, wearing a sut hat and dark coat, and noted a quick blue eye. Maley would recognize him, aligning with a man seen fleeing the crime scene. Authorities consider the unknown man likely the killer, while Seibert remains jailed as a possible innocent. The coroner may re-examine Mia and Dinan as attorneys push for new witnesses and details.
