Judge rules witness not required to incriminate self in Davis case
Rock Island judge Moses Gest rules a witness in the Davis trial may refuse to answer questions that might incriminate himself. John Stengel refused to testify on selected queries, a ruling that weakens prosecution in these cases. The three Colona youths who left Rock Island county were captured in Henry county and returned home Friday.
