Smith Guilty in Assault and Robbery Trial Controversy
James Smith was found guilty by a District Court jury of assault with intent to kill and robbery of Morris Bennett, with a contention that the indictment followed the old district code rather than the new U.S. Penal Code. The defense plans a motion for arrest of judgment and a new trial, arguing faulty counts and police methods during the investigation. The case now goes to the Court of Appeals on the jurisdiction question, with a potential sentence reduced to fifteen years if the fiat count is struck.
