Boy Accuses "Hobo King" In Kidnapping Trial
A Toledo court heard a boy accuse James Corbett known as "Hobo King No 2" of kidnapping him and forcing him to beg. The boy claimed Corbett took him from Toledo to Chicago and then to other cities, while Corbett denied the charges and said he lectured at schools. The trial featured Corbett's defense noting his Notre Dame and Catholic college study, and the boy’s testimony was pivotal to the prosecution.
