Remarkable Case in Prison for Fourteen Years
The Ohio State Journal recounts the commuted sentence of Frank Warthorst, a life prisoner since 1884 in Stark County. Doubt as to his guilt led to release after fourteen years, with time off for good behavior. The Massillon murder of Mrs. Mary E Kirkland on July 2, 1888, sparked the case, featuring Lizzie Maloney’s shifting testimony and a notable trial led by John McSweeney and George Baldwin, with Judge William R. Day defending. Contemporary public sentiment split on Warthorst’s guilt, and jurors later voiced lingering doubts amid an elaborate pardons board review. The report notes accompanying local legal notices and civic matters in Canton and Massillon.
