Acquittal in Grand Larceny Case at City Courts
Christian Evenson, once a restaurant operator in Richmond and Norfolk, was acquitted of grand larceny charges in a police court. The warrant alleged theft of a piano and $100 in articles, with mortgage details and contract breach cited. Judge Tomlin ruled the evidence showed only a breach of contract and no criminal intent, as lawyers for both sides presented arguments before a local jury.
