Plea Made by Grand Jury
May Rescue Ruth Judd
From Death on GGLLOWs
Wealthy Phoenix Man to
Face Trial as Killing
Accessory.
BY GALE ID. WALLACE
limited Press stan Cnrresnnndenf

PHOENIX, Ariz., Dec. 31.-The
Arizona state board of pardons and
paroles became the sanctuary of
hope for Winnie Ruth Judd today,
fighting desperately to escape the
gallows to which she was con-
demned for the murder of Agnes
Ann Leroi.
Her hope for clemency was re-
yived when the county grand jury
after indicting John j. (Happy
jack Halloran as an alleged &C
ceSsory after the murder, strongly
recommended her sentence be COM
muted to life Imprisonment. The
grand jurors expressed their convic-
ton that the doomed woman shot
in self-defense when she killed Mrs.
Leroi.
Halloran, a wealthy local lumber
man, was free on $4,000 bail, pend
ing arraignment next Tuesday.
He frequently had been drawn
into the case by stories of the con-
demned murderess that he helped
dispose of the bodies of Mrs. Leroi
and her friend, Hedvig Samuelson,
whom she also is accused of killing.
Jury Believes Her Story
The accused man, a popular figure
in local night life, denied the
charges, limiting they were only part
OF the woman's strategy to cheat the
gallows. Conviction under the in
dictment carries a maximum penalty
of five years imprisonment and a
fine.
BY recommending 1eniency for
Mrs. Judd, the grand jury placed the
issue squarely before the state board
OF pardonS and paroles, which SUPER
sedeS the Governor in authority in
this state.
The grand jurors revealed thev
believed Mrs. Judd when she an
peared before them three days ago.
and reputedly told "the whole sto1'v''
OF how she killed her two friends
after a jealous quarrel over Hal
loran's affections.
Prosecutor Burns Up"
County Prosecutor Lloyd Andrews
was incensed by the grand jury
actions.
The jury wanted to do a good
deed as its final act, I suppose" he
said. Il was burned up over it.
lnasmuch as the state supreme court
has turned her down twice on ap-
peal"
Mrs. Judd accepted the news in
differently.
Il thought So" she smiled. This
was her only comment.
