Repeated Confession Ties Nicholas to Actress Murder
In Chicago an East Chicago area coroner jury held Howard Nicholas and Leopold for the grand jury after a repeated confession tying Nicholas to the murder of Indianapolis actress Margaret Leslie at the Palace hotel on October 18. Police pursue Leopold, with detectives moving toward a western city on a new tip as attorneys and coroners scrutinize the case and statements. The inquest criticized prior conclusions and pressed for further testimony from the actress’s father, while Nicholas clings to his original confession despite rumors of new admissions.
