Man fined for civil rights bias at Illinois motel
George Brazitis, operator of the Stone Motel in Williamson County Illinois north of Johnston City, received a one year conditional discharge and a $250 fine for violating blacks civil rights. He waived a jury trial and a bench trial was held by Judge William Lewis in Marion on Aug 30 1975. Gertie Fordsour of Pontiac Michigan testified that she her mother and two children were refused a room when they arrived after a reservation had been made by a Matson motel clerk. The motel cited Labor Day Holiday and Du Quoin State Fair crowd as reason for full occupancy. Conditional discharge keeps him under court supervision for a year without probation officer reporting. The record is not expunged after the year.
