Prisoner Packed In Five Days In Detention Cell
A long French Canadian incident details Roy Bellemare and James Roy among a group detained after FLQ activity. Police conducted searches, fingerprinting, and questioning. Prisoners received meals, hot water showers, and occasional razors as the hours passed. The narrative shifts to the murder verdict of Billy Taylor Strong in Missouri, sentencing him to life for Robert Cordonier's killing after a jury trial.
