Decision Reversed in Bribery Case At Little Rock
Chief Justice Hill reversed Judge Lea on denying T L Cox testimony about a general agreement with A D DuLaney during DuLaney’s trial for accessory to bribery. The circuit court had found DuLaney not guilty, and statute bars reversal of that verdict, but the supreme court overturned Lea’s ruling on Cox. The decision affects prosecutions in related doodle trials and is seen as aiding convictions in boodle cases pending.
