Conviction of Roy Crane Libel Upheld by Court of Appeals
The criminal court of appeals affirms Roy Gane Crane’s 1966 libel conviction for publishing Barbarous Catholic and Moral Theology of St Signori. The book allegedly printed an oath by fourth degree Knights of Columbus pledging to wage war on heretics and to exterminate them, with threats of ritual harm. The ruling, joined by Judges Armarrang Doyle and Matson, upholds the $1 fine and costs from the Canadian county jury.
