“If he has anything. let him go Prosecutor HerSpencer sald when Deputy Edward Brennan, who handled the case, told him the judge had intimated the investigation.
Girl Testifies
One of the girls employed in the | house where the shooting occurred, testified that she had a doctor's certificate, that the houses operate freely and that there was little police interference. Deputy Prosecutor Brennan said Adams was indicted by the grand | jury which later was discharged by Judge Baker because it was drawn improperly and he will have to be reindicted. After the fatal shooting, according | to a statement made, he turned the gun on himself
