Jerome Contimes Speech in Thaw Case Debates Sanity
In New York on April 11 Jerome criticizes the defense and portrays Thaw as discovering White on the roof garden. He argues the defendant’s acts were sane yet questions Evelyn’s reliability, condemns the defense for painting White as a monster, and scrutinizes the alleged ravishment with a focus on dates, drugged wine, and credibility. The speech foregrounds moral judgment, witness accounts, and the legal narrative surrounding White, Evelyn, and Thaw.
