Legal mêlée over new trial in Baverente case rocks county courts
In Judge Magee’s Criminal Court a motion for a new trial in the indecent assault conviction of P. Baverente caused a confusion. Attorney W. D. Moore, unaware Bauerento’s client was present under another name, learned of the forestalled new trial only yesterday. The episode left Bauerento briefly without counsel as the court had to appoint Walter Day, and Col Echols’ prosecution proceeded. Also Sasquali Crone was convicted of felonious assault on Michael Ciragna, receiving two years in the workhouse, after Ciragna chose Police Officer John Moran then Attorney Patterson to defend him following a delay in counsel assignment.
