State Says Youth Not Unbalanced
Phoenix July 1. The state called Dr. Joseph Catton of San Francisco to refute defense claims that 22 year old Robert Burgunder is mentally unbalanced in a murder trial. Prosecutor Darrell Parker used two hours to elicit Catton's views on a hypothetical youth with a similar life including gambling and a 23 month Seattle reformatory sentence. Burgunder faces charges for the killings of Jack Peterson and Ellis Koury and is supported by testimony from his father Robert Burgunder and Mrs Ruth Burgunder who blamed herself for his mental attitude and noted a letter she wrote criticizing him for money requests.
