Five Years Given In Prison For Theft Ring
A Baltimore man named Albert Finney was sentenced to five years in the penitentiary after pleading nolle contendere to multiple counts of grand and petty larceny. Accomplices Dawson and Fisher received concurrent terms, while others linked to the case faced additional charges. Police tied Finney to thefts from Motorists' Friend and Wayside Service and from Samuel T. Tyler's shop, with radios and watches valued around five hundred dollars. The trial featured testimonies from state witnesses and police trooper Harvey Edwards, who helped place Finney at the scene near Poplar Springs. The judge denounced the conduct and warned would-be thieves to steer clear of Frederick County.
