Indictment Against Mastrian Ruled Valid
The first degree murder indictment against Norman Mastrian is valid and his rights were not violated by the grand jury proceedings. Judge Ronald Hachey ruled after hearings where defense sought to quash the true bill citing drafting flaws and an allegedly improper tape recording in the grand jury room. Mastrian, linked to an alleged million dollar insurance plot surrounding Mrs. Carol Thompson’s slaying, awaits formal arraignment as trial dates and venue issues unfold.
