Court Frees Man In Narcotics Case
Clayton D Sampson walked out of U S District Court a free man as a result of a motion to withdraw charges of violation of federal narcotic laws granted by Presiding Dist Judge William G East of Portland Oregon. Sampson had been convicted December 30 1961 of illegal transport and sale of marijuana and had an $10000 property bond. An appeal motion filed in February 1963 led the Ninth Circuit to find error and refer the matter back to the local district court.
