Defense argues death of Mrs Williams was accidental fall
In Richmond on September 18 the defense contends Mrs Daisey Louise Williams died from an accident, not her husband Joseph S Williams striking her. He admits striking her once at her father George Bebout’s home, 619 North Seventh Street, and bail remains undecided until after Friday’s coroner's inquest. The approach hinges on coroner’s findings, with witnesses limited and Commonwealth's case largely circumstantial.
