Costello Acquitted of Arson Count
Terrance John Costello, 20, of 3321 N Montezuma Ave, was acquitted of a first degree arson charge by a directed verdict from Superior Court Judge John P Collins. He had been convicted in 1963 for setting a fire that destroyed J Russell Spann's River Road home, receiving a five year sentence he has not served, and a new trial was granted after the court ruled confessions were not voluntary. The judge freed him citing failure to advise him of the right to remain silent.
