HAUPTMANN'S LAWYER
IN ASYLUM FOR INSANE

Edward J. Reilly, chief of the de-
tense counsel for Bruno Richard
Hauptmann in the Lindbergh kid
mapping case, entered the Brooklyn
State Hospital for the Insane, Mon
day, under an emergency commit
ment on a petition made by his
mother, Mrs. Helen Reilly.
In my opinion" DR.. Sherman said,
'tMr. Reilly's domestic troubles for
the past year or so and the fact that
he did not win the Hauptmann case
preyed on his mind and caused Sc
we're nervous breakdown"
Mr.. Reilly in his long career as a
criminal lawyer was said to have
handled more than 1000 homicide
cases, of which about 100 involved
women.
A veteran of the World War, he
was captain in the Military Intelli-
gence division of the ARMY and also
was attached to the Second Field
Artillery and the Forty-seventh
Infantry.
Mr.. Reilly's present wife, Mrs.
Fleurette Reilly, has cited him for
contempt of court for failing to pay
back alimony.
