Huntress Appeals for New Trial in Public Funds Case
The Illinois appeals court reversed and remanded Huntress County Clerk Googe W Huntress's conviction for conversion of public funds, ordering a new trial. The court found the trial court misapplied accomplice instructions to deputies who testified, who were alleged to be party to the scheme, and criticized the jury instruction on accomplice testimony. The case arose from alleged misuse of office funds and bonuses paid to employees, with Bailie Beaumier involved and several deputies implicated. The ruling cites the need to reexamine whether these deputies were legally accomplices and to reset the trial process accordingly.
