Conflicting Testimony in Wren Trial Over Clearview High Fire
On day two of Raymond Wren's trial in Lorain County Common Pleas Court, witnesses' accounts diverged over the Clearview High School fire that caused about 500000 in damage. Prosecution investigator Henry Zieba described interviewing 65 students and recording 8, while Wren's taped statements place him at the school around 11:30 a.m. May 6, with later versions from witnesses placing him near the fire area by 11:45. The defense and prosecutors sparred over details as Zieba testified about evidence and rumors examined after the blaze.

Clevelander jailed for threats if freed
A 51 year old Cleveland decorator, Ernest C Ware, was freed by a federal jury after 40 minutes deliberation, found innocent of threatening the lives of Lyndon B Johnson Nixon and J Edgar Hoover. He had previously spent 10 months in jail after making the threats during a 1968 telephone call to the FBI. His lawyer cited distress over his brother’s murder in a Tennessee prison and alcohol influence, noting Ware had no recollection of the threats.
