Hearing Hears Favre Slaying Change of Venue Debate
Louis Mississippi March 2 Forty witnesses await an amnesty to testify at a hearing to determine if a change of venue is necessary for the case of Jesse Favre charged in the slaying of W. H. Ming and MacLemore near Picayune. Newsmen seek judge Wal white’s stance as publicity and public opinion are cited as factors in a fair trial. An order threatens penalties for failing to submit evidence to court officials. Bidwell Adam, Favre’s attorney, argues publicity has tainted the case and favors Hancock County trial. If denied, the trial is likely to start soon.
