State halts alibi law in Hauptmann case
New Jersey officials said they will not invoke the 1934 alibi law against Bruno Hauptmann before the trial. The law would require the defense to reveal alibi witnesses five days before evidence and the state to name its rebuttal witnesses two days later. The move aims to keep surprise witnesses possible while limiting late changes.
