Porter Charlton Extradition Fight Ends in Italy Trial Question
Experts doubt any trial will occur in Italy as Porter Charlton lies gravely ill with tuberculosis and a fragile mental state after three years fighting extradition over the death of his wife Mrs. Mary Scott Castle Charlton. A trunk with her mutilated body was found in Lake Como, Italy, and Charlton’s flight to Naples preceded his arrest in Hoboken after a confession amid intense interrogation. Charlton’s father, a former U S judge, led the effort to avoid Italian imprisonment.
