Freedom Sought for Mrs Bennett in Murder Case
Attorney Thomas N Read of Hinton said he doubts Mrs R L Bennett will ever be tried for the murder of Magistrate Mc Bennett in Fayetteville as her husband, Thurman railroad man Robert L Bennett, was sentenced to 12 years for second degree murder. Read recalled Bennett's 27 year old acquittal in Summers County for shooting a man accused of paying attentions to Bennett’s wife. He noted the lack of witnesses and that both spouses could not be compelled to testify against each other. The Fayetteville trial concluded this week with Read describing the verdict as the best possible under the circumstances.
