Jury Weighs Evidence In Wally Butts Libel Suit
In Atlanta jurors return to deliberate on a $10 million libel suit by former Georgia athletic director Wally Butts against Curtis Publishing over a Saturday Evening Post article claiming he leaked prep details about Alabama coach Bear Bryant before a 1902 game. The panel, after nearly six hours of discussion, recessed for the night as the trial enters its second day with witnesses and arguments highlighting truth as a defense and substantial truth for parts of the piece.
