Walter Maburia Proved Involved in Barn Harness Theft
Walter Maburia appeared before Judge Rowan for stealing a set of single harness from Otto Leindecker’s barn in Bloomington township last week. Halter was dismissed for lack of evidence. The harness moved through John Richards to a man who claimed the harness passed to him. Leindecker linked Walter Maburin to the crime as the former employee who left when the harness vanished. The report of Maburin’s flight was denied as unfounded, underscoring the case as circumstantial.
