Court reverses ruling on Crawford extradition in Virginia murder case
The U S Circuit Court of Appeals reversed Judge Lowell and vacated the writ of habeas corpus that would have kept George Crawford in Massachusetts. The court remanded to allow extradition to Virginia for the murder of Mrs Agnes Boeing Isley and her maid Nine Buckner in Hebury in January 1942. Crawford, arrested in Boston on a burglary charge, is in Suffolk County jail awaiting Virginia authorities. The decision signals possible early extradition to Virginia unless Massachusetts courts act.
