Grandmother Heads to Glasgow for clemency plea
Deming grandmother plans to fly to Scotland to seek clemency for her 18 year old grandson Albert Kilman Field who pleaded guilty to wounding two during a Glasgow post office robbery. She will hire a Scottish attorney and connect with Glasgow authorities and New York on Saturday. Field, once a bright Deming High student, admitted shooting a post office worker and a bystander, stealing 417 dollars on October 1. His mother took him to Messina in South Africa last summer after a prior Hatch robbery conviction. His padre died in Japan as a POW after surviving Bataan. The mother, R J Rose, was hospitalized but released after learning of the arrest.
