Says Girard Fired As Joke In Japanese Manslaughter Trial
U S soldier testified that William S. Girard fired an empty cartridge case as a joke, killing a Japanese woman after luring her into range. Victor Nickel said he piled more than 10 brass cases from a machine gun emplacement at Girard’s suggestion. He claimed Girard motioned that it was safe to pick up cases, though he did not see Girard toss any shell casings. The testimony occurred on a muddy firing range hillside where Mrs. Naka Sakai was fatally wounded on January 30. The judge questioned Nickel about whether Girard shot the woman for sport. He answered yes, stating it was a joke. Lamb Insured Payment Plan.
