‘Big To State Admits Evidence in Case Is Lean
Prosecutor Fairchild may be left “holding the bag” in the Big Tom gaming case. The admitted lottery ticket wholesaler, Walter F. (Big Tom) Thonipson, goes on trial tomorrow with virtually all evidence against “him ruled out. All Mr, Fairchild can show the Criminal ©ourt 1 jury is a duffel bag of baseball tickets. It was taken from Big Tom's car before police. raided his downtown office Feb. 27, 1951. Fifty boxes of gaming equipment and records seized in the raid have been returned to Big Tom. They were ruled out because the raid was declared illegal. Self-styled foe of gamblers, Mr. Fairchild is bearing down on the case for ‘two reasons—it’s his second biggest gaming trial and
it has taken on political over-|
tones.
The trial comes just six weeks|
before the Nov. 4 election in which Mr. Fairchild seeks return to office. His Democrat opponent, Charles Mains, has said he'll follow the trial closely for possible campaign fodder.
Tried on Three Counts
Thompson, who admitted his gaming occupation at an earlier hearing, will be tried on three gaming indictments. They carry a maximum of six months in Jail and a $1500 fine upon conviction. Rumors have been flying that Mr. Fairchild would be willing to accept a heavy fine and forego the jail sentence if Big Tom came in and pleaded guilty. The prosecutor admitted yesterday “some negotiations” had been in progress. But he denied making “any deals.” 4 Thompson's attorney, Virgil Norris, confirmed the “negotiations.” But he said his client would“ not plead guilty. After pouring over law books, Mr. Fairchild told reporters: “Sure I'm going ahead and try the case. I've got no other choice.” |
19-Month-Old Case At the same -time, he again
of gaming cases very dififculr The case began 19 months ago when police arrested Thompson, on a minor traffic charge. The bag of tickets found in his car was used as the basis for the search| warrant to raid his headquarters. Later, Special Judge Alvah J. Rucker declared the search warrant 11legal. Attorney Norris branded the arrest as a “subterfuge” to enter Big Tom’s office. The raid also brought charges from Big Tom that $3800 was missing from his office after police left. To bolster his accusation, he took a lie detector test which was reported as showing he told the truth when he said the money had been in his office A special panel of 50 prospective jurors has been summoned for the trial. Selection of the jury may take most of the day.
