BY the Associated Press

NEW YORK, May 30.-Madeline
Webb. who will be % in three days,
will spend this birthday and per-
haps all the rest Of her birthdays
in jail, as the penalty for taking
part in murder that netted $13
A jury convicted her last night of
flrst-degree murder in the March
4 robbery-slaying of Mrs. Susan
Flora Reich, but recommended
mercy-that meant life imprison-
ment.
All her moans-"Please. Judge, I
didn't do it, please not
shake the verdict.
Her lover, Eli Shonbrun. pleaded
for her. too. She's as innocent as
my mother, judge" he sobbed. even
as the jury announced a sterner
verdict for him.
Cullen and ShOnbrun Doomed.
Shonbrun and a third defendant,
John D. Cullen, were found guilty
Of flrst-degree murder without q
mercy recommendation, automatic
ally booming them to death in the
electric chair.
The three were convicted OF kill
ing Mrs. Reich in the course of
robbing her of a $500 diamond
| ring. Testimony showed they never
were able to sell the diamond, and
that the sale of the rings mounting
netted only $13
Shonbrun, who confessed to the
murder in an effort to save Made
line, seemed more concerned about
her fate than his own.
When the jury filed into the
courtroom. Madeline. until then a
spirited, defiant girl, struggled to
her feet. Her face, her unrouged
lips, were gray; her head and
shoulders bowed. She leaned stiff
armed against the defense table,
disheveled dark hair falling over
her eyes.
Breaks Into Sobs.
AS the foreman intoned, I'VE find
her guilty" Madeline swayed for a
moment, expressionless as a wax
works figure.
Then Shonbrun broke into sobs,
crying you've crucifed her. My
God, my God"
Madeline, coming out of her daze
stretched her arms wide and
moaned, please judge, I didn't do it,
please. I beg you. -"
Attendants quieted Shonbrun's S
sobs sufficiently for him to hear his
own verdict. Cullen, the almost
forgotten defendant, who did not
testify during the trial. was silent
still when he was found guilty as
charged"

Later, when Shonbrun was asked
to give his occupation, he yelled

er of Saltwater, Okla, who came
East to help in Miss Webb's de-
fense, expressed surprise at the
verdict.
"Out where I come from, they
would have acquitted her." he said.

said motions for appeal would be
