Trial of John Oxford for attempt on Queen Victoria's life

The Central Criminal Court resumed the trial of John Oxford charged with firing pistols at Queen Victoria during a carriage procession. The defense argued insanity, citing hereditary madness and lack of motive, while prosecutors urged deliberate act with potential treasonous intent. Witnesses described Oxford's disturbing behavior, family history, and prior episodes of violence and imbalanced conduct.
