Trial of Sickles Opens Amid Crowd as Key Murder Case Unfolds
The April sessions in Wasuixetox begin with Daniel E. Sickles arraigned and pleading not guilty. District Attorney Ould outlines the prosecution while jurors, witnesses, and a packed courtroom attend the dramatic start. The defense hints at challenging evidence and plans to argue killer's state of mind over adultery context and possible mitigations. Washington papers report no truth to Mrs Sickles visiting the city, while the defense weighs admissibility of past moral conduct and early life in shaping jurors’ view of guilt.
