Grand Jury Probes Damage Suit Industry in Bexar County
The present grand jury in Bexar County probes the so called damage suit industry. Five indictments accuse swindling and conspiracy to swindle linked to the Southwestern Telegraph and Telephone Company. One defendant faces charges of alleged swindling and conspiracy involving the International and Great Northern railroad. Previous juries had investigated the damage industry with several bills returned but some cases dismissed due to unavailable state witnesses. The current jury reportedly has strong evidence and aims to extend the inquiry.
