Two Not Guilty Pleas Returned By Jury Here Criminal Court juries brought in two not-guilty ‘pleas just before 5 p.m. Friday as Judge Caro, County Solicitor Ajlan B, Cleare and Criminal Court Clerk Harry Dongo wound up a week crowded with cases. Bobby Lee Stanley, sailor, charged with reckless driving, when he ran into a Navy truck early Easter morning while offi- cials’ cars were gathered at the scene of the fatal accident of Clif- ford Brown, was acquitted after. a few minutes deliberation. Ralph Cunningham, new Mara- thon lawyer, offered to represent Stanley at last minute and won his first case before Judge Caro, by obtaining a verdict @f “not guilty.” Stanley had been accused of running into the Navy truck which was turning around in the middle of the highway following the acci- dent in which Lt. Clinton E. Roche USN, allegedly killed Clifford Brown. Stanley took the stand as did his passenger and claimed to be driving only about 40 miles per hour. State Trooper Frank Cline who was directing traffic follow- ing the accident had said he was driving 70 or more miles per hour. The jury also found Wilbur Ci- pio not guilty of the charge of fol- lowing more closely than was rea- sonable and prudent. In the case of Mrs. Betty Jo Cummings, charged with reckless driving, hitting a parked junked truck on Stock Island, the Judge lifted her license until such dime as she. is considered capable of driving again. State Trooper Cline, upon inves- tigating the accident and talking with Mrs. Cummings took her to the Navy hospital psychiatrist for her nerves. She is now under treatment, it was brought out. In the last day of Criminal Court jury trials, Judge Caro plowed through a heavy docket of guilty pleas and estreated bonds of 17} | persons who failed to show up in | court. | ‘The forfeiters of bonds were as | | follows: | John Jett, reckless driving and | no driver’s license, $25; Pronto Al- jlen, reckless driving, $25; McAr- thur Giles, no drivers’ license, $25; Harvey Crocker Smith, reckless driving, $25; Harold Keith Hill yard, no drivers’ license, $10; Fred Palermo, improper license tag, $25; Field S.
