Starts Second Trial For Killing Of Five
The second trial of Frank Valeroan of Pond Hill opened before Judge Fuller in Wilkes-Barre Pennsylvania. He is charged with murdering Rev. Felix Nowak, his wife, and three children whose charred bodies were found last July in the parsonage. Valerosa was previously convicted by circumstantial evidence and sentenced to the electric chair, a conviction reversed on appeal for a new trial due to new evidence. He pleaded not guilty at arraignment yesterday.
