Staunton Lawyer Bailed By Friends For Humanity Act
Four Staunton businessmen posted a $10,000 bond for lawyer John A. Alexander to secure his appearance at the September term of the Corporation Court. Alexander, jailed on a warrant charging forgery, was moved from King’s Daughters Hospital to jail after his bail was posted. His supporters say the bond is an act of humanity to allow him hospital care, not to condone any alleged offense. The September grand jury will convene as scheduled.
