Key Witnesses Mum At Inquest
Cleveland coroner's inquest into Melvin L. Gold's murder enters day two with key witnesses silent. Lily Gold described her husband's July 5 departure to see Alex Birns. Birns and Allene Leonaris refused or avoided questions, invoking the Fifth Amendment. Birns paid a bondsman for a $50,000 bond after a prior federal conviction. Gerber noted the costly proceeding as witnesses offered little new information.
