~ “1 did not,” said the policeman. : Asks About Tucker Defense attorneys asked if Glenn ‘Pucker was still employed by the Shelbyville police department. Mr. Clapp replied that Mr. Tucker had been discharged a month ago, Then Mr, Baugh swung on his chair and pointing a finger at ‘Johnson, cried: “And isn’t the reason that he beat up this man?” . The three _ attorneys for the prosecution jumped to their feet with objections. Judge George W. Long of Bartholomew county sustained them. 3 .. The state yesterday began io lay “the foundation of the- first-degree murder case. . * Shelby County Prosecutor Harold Meloy attempted to place tne boys and their girl friends, at the scene of the killing—a country road near Shelbyville. He is trying to convince the jury that state police photos show the location of the stolen car in which _the teen-agers were riding at the time Trooper Smith halted his police cruiser to Investigate the car Testify to Flight He is producing witnesses to testify they saw the teen-agers fleeing across the muddy fields/after Price, according to the prosecution, killed the troeper with one shot from a revolver. The defense has attacked the validity of the police photos as showing the exact positions of the stolen car and the police cruiser at the time of the shooting. In reply, the prosecutor asserted vigorously that neither car was moved until after the official police photographs were made by Trooper - Charles Epperson: Trooper Epperson reached the scene 90 minutes after the shooting. : Trooper Had Keys Civilians, who were the first to arrive, testified the car was not moved. Later Trooper Charles Adams said the cars could not have been moved from the ‘time he arrived a half hour after the incident. “And why is this?” asked Prosecutor Meloy. “I had the keys to the cars”

Taken ‘Away From Crowd’ In an effort to block defense charges of’ state police brutality against the defendants, he carefully pointed out that the youths were taken to Indianapolis frorfi Shelbyville and “away from the crowd.” At Indianapelis confessions were made and signed. In an impassioned voice which often broke, Mr. Baugh, charged unmerciful beatings of “the children” by “the big policemen.” He asserted “the boys” were forced to run the “Indian gantlet” and that they were struck repeatedly. “We do not have third degree in the state of Indiana. We have 9th and 15th degrees,” he said. Mr. Baugh asserted that at no time | did the defendants plan to shoot or kill Trooper Smith. Car Theft Admitted “These children were in a stolen car.
