Prisoner Michen slips from city court during trial
Claude Michen facing felonious assault with intent to kill Adkins escaped from the city court during proceedings yesterday. He had been brought from Johnson City after Adkins identified him as the assailant in a late Saturday night confrontation near Borden Mills. Adkins, an ex veteran injured in the head, testified as the case moved forward before deputies sought his bond for a state trial. Michen vanished via the rear of the City Hall, speeding away as witnesses and lawyers debated next steps. Where is Claude Michen now remains a local mystery.
