Murder Trial At Issue In New Jersey Case
The Supreme Court ordered a new trial for Tony Turko in the 1921 Koster murder case after ruling verdicts must declare murder in the first degree or second degree. Turko, tied to the Cat Swamp gang, faced execution earlier but received a stay and later appeal. The decision areas include jury verdict wording and potential mercy considerations.
