Mardi Gras delays Shaw murder trial on private porch
The Clay L. Shaw jury and judge adjourned early for Mardi Gras festivities on a private porch view of Rex and Elks Krewe parades. Two jurors fell ill prompting an assistant coroner to attend. Shaw, 55, faces conspiracy charges in the 1963 JFK murder plot, not the actual killing. Dr. John M. Nichols testified on frame by frame view of the murder sequence.
