LANDER MAN CONVICTED OF
PERJURY YEARS @ MONTHS

Joe Shinovich will spend the next
two and one-half years in the state
penitentiary because he recently
went into court, and under oath
testified falsely in a murder in
quest. In passing sentence the
judge made it very plain thai the
practice of perjury had to cease III
his court, and the sentence passed
put to Shinovich was but a sample
of what was coming to others
should they persist in regarding
their oath lightly.
Shinovich testified at the inquest
that he was not at the house, and
knew nothing of the shooting which
resulted in the death of Hobart
Haynes. 1t was proved beyond a
doubt that he was in the house at
the time, in bed, and that he got
up and sent out for the doctor, an
errand which he failed to fulfill
and the man died without medical
aid.
