Jerome Thaw Trial Advances with Smith Testimony
Abe Hummel testified briefly as Jerome pressed to admit Evelyn Thaw's affidavit to contradict her earlier statements. James C. Smith recounted Thaw’s roof garden talk, showing Thaw calm before the shooting, while Delmas sought time to prepare a hypothetical question. The court adjourned after Smith’s cross examination left questions about the witness’s reliability.
