McCleary Trial Nears End in Rockville Murder Case
Norman Bruce McCleary faces a jury in Rockville Circuit Court over the August 15 death of Mrs. Nannie B. Henry. Defense witnesses challenge the prosecution claim of throttling, with Nellie South Pearl Wiley and undertaker Robert Coffman testifying on funds, alibi, and the scene. Doctors Wagaman and Loughlin contended the autopsy found no throttling and indicated tuberculosis, while the defense argues insufficient autopsy evidence to prove throttling could not have caused the death.
