Trial ends with jury deliberating in Fricke embezzlement case
The Nebraska case against C G Fricke, secretary of Livingston Loan & Building, goes to the jurors after closing arguments. Prosecutor D O Dwyer and assistant attorney general William T Thompson led the state's claim that Fricke embezzled 251 by diverting funds from the association and cashing a warrant into his own account. Defense attorney Hallack Rose argued Fricke paid dues from his own funds and handled the claim himself. The trial drew stockholders and observers familiar with the Livingston association's troubles since 1921.
