California Seeks Capote On Contempt Charge
California authorities continue efforts to arrest author Truman Capote for contempt of court after he failed to respond to a subpoena in the Morse murder case. District Attorney Don Keller and investigator Gerald Stevens said Capote, living in New York and California locations, could be brought from Mallorca, Spain, if needed.
