Threefold Shepherd McClintock Trial Splits Proceedings
The Shepherd McClintock murder case unfolds in three channels. In criminal court only four jurors are accepted after venire questioning. State Attorney Crowe plans to cite James Callan for contempt for alleged juror influence, with Callan free on 2500 dollars bond. Police seek missing witness Robert White, key to the confession narrative, amid a Philadelphia mailed letter clue and a defense denial of prior testimony pressure.
