Indicted Jurors Probe Details In Burke Bank Records
The Ninety fourth District court grand jury examined Burke and bank officials as it probed a trust fund misallocation. Witnesses described Burke’s trust accounts and a $490.48 balance with questions about weekly reports, while Moeckel testified Burke was asked to settle interest due and had not been seen at the clerk’s office since. The Astoria fund, paid to Burke in 1930 by the City of San Antonio, was tied to street-widening condemnation actions and related legal matters.
