Practices used by District Attorneys’ m s sub-committee in connection with the Mar- | | { 1en to intimidate people | were described by witnesses. Two methods were instanced as most! common. In the first a witness is eubpoenaed to appear before the Grand Jury. He paturally thinks he is to go immediately before} that body. Instead he is first taken to the District Attorney's office end there questioned and quizzed until the District Attorney hus ex- | tracted from him in advance whatever evidence le has to give whether for prosecution or defense. Another method is the summons by “tic formally worded notice directing the recipient to appear forthwith at! the District Attorney's office. et.” The ‘ticket” iz a thus “ticketed” thinks the summons official and complies through fear of the law. Yet these tickets are in fact wholly unofficial and nobody could be punished.for disregarding them. | The injustice of putting witnesses through an inquisition which | they believe to be officiaf without allowing them the protection of counsel or even the law itself must be plain to anybody John B. Stanchfield says he ts aware those practices exist and declares he would be glad to help in putting an end to them. A new code in District Attorneys’ offices would seem to be sadly needed. If the citizen cannot be sure of fair treatment and protec- tion from a recognized legal arm of State or Nation, where is he to turn for them? vs Law: WHAT ARE THEIR REASONS?
