Coatesville Patrolman Key in Murder Case Resurgence
In a revived murder case, Trooper Bill helped locate suspect Myer and brought him to jail within hours. He also helped in the extraction of a girl’s body from a Cornog area well, after Myer confessed to deliberately running the girl down with a truck and using dynamite to seal the well. Public fear runs high as lynching rumors surge in Coatesville, with stores displaying lynching images amid the case. Bill, once on Myer’s trail, may testify at trial, having previously aided in Myer’s capture and the well recovery. The suspect had been paroled from Huntingdon State Reformatory.
