Man Who Killed Partner Undergoes Brain Surgery
Jacob Konaturi once acquitted on insanity grounds for the murder of partner Jack Mynte underwent brain surgery at the county hospital. Doctors believe the head injury from years ago explains his odd jail behavior and headaches when he laughs or coughs. Attorney Harry Sigmund, who defended Konaturi, consented to the operation hoping to ease his client’s condition. An X-ray showed a skull fracture from a heavy weight strike when Konaturi was a sailor, with physicians noting brain growth adhesion to the skull.
