Judge Rules Sherrick Case Needs Clear Intent Defense
The special judge barred evidence claiming no intent to defraud. Testimony from John Reed and others described Gov Hanty paying $810 to Sherrick, with funds later mingled with state money. The judge rejected the defense that the governor’s action showed no fraud intent and emphasized that public funds may not be used for personal use.
