Fetterly Pardoned After Brief Prison Term
William Fetterly, convicted in March 1963 of criminal assault, was pardoned by Governor McBride and released from Walla Walla prison two weeks ago after serving under two months of a fifteen year sentence. Defense attorney Soren T. Williams said the pardon was kept quiet due to local prejudice and that the governor corrected a past injustice. Fetterly, a stone cutter, was arrested following sensational testimony in a divorce case.
