Mahoney Cleared in Bookmaking Case Amid Gambling Law Ruling
Charles Mahoney, manager of the Hoffman House, was acquitted by Special Sessions Justices led by Franklin Chase Hoyt on charges of bookmaking under the new gambling law. The ruling requires clear evidence of operating a betting business, not mere individual bets, and found no books or proof of a pool selling operation. District Attorney Jerome criticized the result, noting the lack of habeas corpus recourse.
