Denver man John Gilbert Graham denies planting a bomb on the United Air Lines DC 6B that killed his mother Daisie King and 43 others near Longmont Colorado on November 1.

District Attorney Bert Keating says Mrs King signed several flight insurance policies with Graham named as beneficiary on some policies. FBI experts reportedly deem two signatures authentic among the six policies found.
