Knight to Scan Chessman Case Trials Friday Death
Knight to scan the Chessman case as California Governor Goodwin J. Knight weighs clemency for condemned author Charles E. Chessman. The case centers on kidnapping with intent, a death sentence under the Little Lindbergh Law, and involves reports of a noted genius with an IQ of 172 and a historical bid to appeal up to the U. S. Supreme Court. Governor Knight said he will not assume blanket authority but will review the record and notes from the court reporter with Berwyn Rice handling the appeal. Chessman, who acted as his own attorney before hiring Rice, faces possible execution at San Quentin's death chamber Friday.
