Pilgrim Found Guilty in North Carolina Case Amid Peanuts Mercy
Dirt and his wife testified in a strange North Carolina trial where two witnesses were accused of robbing a hen yard. The defense claimed a bribery plot to extort money, while the state argued the witness testimony proved guilt on all counts. The jury convicted the prisoner with a brutal proposed sentence of lashes and execution, but the judge freed him on condition of providing peanuts for guests within twenty days, prompting a quirky mercy that ended with peanuts as the key to justice.
