Blackwell Found Guilty of Arson in Sheridan Block Fire
The jury found Jas Blackwell guilty of arson for setting fire to the Sheridan block on May 28 1995. He was remanded to jail to await sentence after a strong defense by Judge W W Gatewood and an ardent prosecution by James M Hervey. Evidence suggested he shipped four boxes of liquor to Texas shortly before the fire, with others marking glass. Blackwell had been free on bond for nearly a year and was the sole person indicted in connection with the alleged arson.
