George W. Leach received thirty days parole for a conviction, but $620 in fines and costs remains. If he serves jail time, it would equal about 620 days or nearly 20 months. Governor Marshall had offered to reduce the fine to $50 if a petition signed by county officers, jurors, and the board president agreed.
