Swindle Court Bond Set for Dixon in Minneapolis Case

County Attorney James Robertson announced a $10,000 bond for Howard Dixon, charged with misappropriating money from a “wire taping” game. If Dixon is released on the Coyle charge and no other complaint exists, he cannot be held. Teeter, who reported a similar swindle and identified Dixon, could not be compelled to swear to a complaint, and Teeter later left the city. Police pursued Teeter and learned of two other men linked to the scheme, J Turner of Grinnell and A M Harkey of Heron Lake, with Teeter’s name published in local papers amid Hysstha coverage.
