Defense in Thornton Case Opens Fire Incident at Issue
In U S circuit court defense lawyer M J Martini outlined a plan to prove the Thornton fire was incendiary. He highlighted contradictions in the plaintiff's witness accounts, including the library catalogue and inventory, and argued the insurance policies were set to take effect the day of the fire. The defense will present circumstantial evidence linking the blaze to arson and challenge the plaintiff's proof of loss and inventory timing. The narrative traces Thornton's insurance dealings with Hoban Agency, the Kingston move, and the sequence ending with the fire shortly after Thornton returned to Wilkes-Barre.
