Closing Arguments in Bradley Murder Trial
In Washington and Salt Lake City the defense and prosecution wrapped up their closing statements in the murder trial of Mrs. Annie M. Bradley, charged with killing former Senator Arthur M. Brown. The judge read the charge, urging the jury to overlook sympathy, and the case went to the panel. The defense pressed insanity and Brown’s alleged coercive role, while the district attorney urged a verdict rejecting sympathy and affirming the defendant’s guilt in the Utah senator’s death at a local hotel last winter.
