Lawyer as Trial Witness in Darrow Case Barring Debate

Chicago lawyer John R. Harrington, long trusted by Clarence Darrow, faced a potential bar from testifying in the Darrow trial over alleged jury bribery. Judge Hutton signaled possible admissibility questions, noting Harrington’s role as investigator for the McNamara defense rather than a mere attorney.
