Overruling_a defense motion for a new trial, District Supreme Court Justice James M. Proctor yesterday sentenced John “Slim” Dunn and Sam Berlin, members of the tristate gang. to serve from 3 to 15 years for the hold-up and robbery of the Heurich Brewery in October, 1933. ‘The sentence was the maximum for the two men, who are also under in- dictment in the Union Station mail robbery case. | Arthur “Dutch” Misunas, former tristate gangster, was the Govern- ment’s principal witness in the trial of Dunn and Berlin. They were found guilty November 28 of partici- | pating in the $1,600 brewery hold-up. In passing sentence, Justice Proctor said “Although I might have some regret in sending to prison for a long time two young men, yet I cannot close my eyes to the fact of their partici- | pation in a carefully planned robbery by a carefully organized gang. “There can be no doubt that men who have previously lived useful and lawful lives do not become members of well-organized criminal gangs over | night. If for no other rcason, this | is because the criminal gangs require some proof of previous criminal ex- | perience. “In considering all the evidence of this case, in its many aspects, I can- not fail to consider it one of the most serious offenses against the robbery | statute that it is possible to conceive. | “I sentence each of the defendants to the maximum term of this statute, not less than 3 nor more than 15 vears.” Defense Attorney James O'Shea served notice of his intention to ap- peal.
