Nooney Mooney and Billings Meet in San Francisco Hearing
In San Francisco on September 25 1918 Warren K Billings testified for Thomas J Mooney at a habeas corpus hearing in the California Supreme Court. Billings described hope for relief and mutual appeals for freedom following a long separation from San Quentin days. Mooney sought to prove that testimony convicting him of the bombing killing 10 was perjured. He alleged authorities stole letters from his home years ago and struggled to recall dates. Billings had no announced legal plans for his own case.
