The full names and nick names OF
the condemned men are:
Frank Girofci (Dago Frank, Harry
Horrowitz (Gyp the Blood, Louis
Rosenberg Ueftie Louie) and jacob
Seidenshner (Whitey Lewis.
Included in the governors state
ment were the texts of letters re-
ceived from Supreme Court Justice
Goff and District Attorney Whitman,
who acted in the case. Both men
strongly opposed the granting Of q
reprieve. The district attorney de-
clared that to delay or prevent the
execution of the just judgment OF The
law against them would, in his onin.
ion, tend to destroy the sense Of Sc
curity which every law abiding ci;i-
zen should feel. The justice declared
there was no doubt as to the prison
ers' guilt.
| Gov Glynn's Statement
The governor said:
| have carefully reviewed the rec.
ord of the trial and the opinions w.t.,
ten in the court of appeals on tic
affirmance of the judgment of convic,
ton in this case and | am unable TO
discover any reason that would Justify
the granting of reprieve.
The judgment of conviction of these
defendants was unanimously affirmed
by the court of appeals. The court
found no error had been committed
in the trial; that the defendants had
fair trial, and that there was no
thing in the case at all to require oil
to justify a new trial.
Judge Goff's View
Justice Golf wrote the governor as
follows
AS near as absolute certainty sar

these four men were convicted Of
murder. The conviction has bee-
unanimously affirmed by the court o

It was proven that these men dc
not even know Rosenthal. that they
were hired to murder him, that the,
did murder him, and that the oni!
motive which could actuate them wa.
to earn the price.
Their guilt, therefore, did not IL
any manner depend on the prior con
viction OF Becker, who, 1t is claimet
through his agents, hired them, moi
would it be affected II the identity o
Becker had never been discovered.
