Insanity Debate Delays Trial In St Paul’s Case At Court
In a crowded session the lord mayor and solicitor debated the prisoner Sintzenich’s alleged insanity. The crown law officers oppose a mental inquiry, while defense presses for private custody under the Victoria acts to spare a public trial and parental distress. The court remands the case for two weeks as inquiry continues and a dean’s representative is urged to attend.
