Assistant United States Attorney Re- bekah S. Greathouse, who represénted the officer at the inquest, was dissat- isfled with the result of the inquiry and so reported to Mr. Rover. The prose- cutor assigned Assistant United States Attorney Walter M. Shea to make a complete investigation of the affair. Shea submitted his report to.
