 dore Johnson has como out in de. iouse of Andrew J. Richardson against whom new charges have been lodged with the states attorney, alleging that he was lax in an investigation Of the shooting of Robert Hopkins in July l9oh

 The investigation, according to Johnson was made hy him and not by Richardson and he feels that charges against the incarcerated dotective are not justified by the facts in the case. After the shooting was reported Johnson arrested Mike Chernowski for the act. The lad, only eight years Of age was not brought into court. His older brother, John, left the city simultaneously with the arrest of Mike and is now in the San Quentin pen!tentiary serving from one year to life for highway robbery. Mike in- sisted that he had the gun in his hand when it went off accidentally. striking Hopkins beside the temple. Hopkins was rushed to the hospital but little hope was held out for his recovery. He lived, however, and the bullet has never been extracted from his head.
 According to the story told the as sistant states attorney, Hopkins won 80 cents from John at poker He was peeved and called to his younger brother to get his revolver. The boy compiled with the request. When Hopkins turned his head away for an instant, John fired he claims.
