Defense Lawyer Addresses Jury in Boodle Case
In Cucaco on Aug 6 Lawyer Hardy began his address for the defense at 8 30 a.m. urging jurors to judge the alleged conspiracy to rob the county by false pretenses only on evidence. He stressed that a single defendant cannot be guilty of conspiracy without others and that each must show theft at some time. The jury asked for an adjournment due to illness and the court, Judge Jamison, granted a pause until 2 p.m.
