Indictment Against Dr Gillette Dismissed For Perjury
Appellate Division of the New York Supreme Court reversed the perjury conviction of Dr Walter R Gillette former Vice President of the Mutual Life Insurance Company and dismissed the indictment. The court ruled he was not properly sworn and could not be tried for perjury since the grand jury probe targeted others and his testimony related to that investigation. The decision may affect related cases including Charles Morse and immunity questions for grand jury witnesses. The ruling preserves constitutional protections and signals possible further appeals.
