Landmark Case of Miller and Conway Murder
In a small circuit city a hotel landlord Jonathan Miller faced murder charges for the death of jewelry salesman Robert Conway. Two traveling salesmen testified to Miller's terror and motive from debt, but a later confession by Buck Everett revealed the truth that Miller did not commit the killing: Everett admitted killing Conway and Miller’s role was limited to planning the scene and looting. The judge confronted with new testimony learned Miller was innocent of the fatal blow, and the confession shifted blame to Everett.
