'Ellingson Explains
Casey Case; Says
Navy Sent Request

The Casey Case today drew an
explanation from City Manager
o. j. S. Ellingson.
Casey, Wiley F., is the young
sailor the city set free on De-
cember II after he had been SEN
fenced to so days in Jail in lieu
of paying a $3.50 fine for break
ing parking meter. The Casey
Case is also one in which
Charles Pellieier was given a
$3.50 reward because he was the
witness who testified he saw
Casey break the meter.
The city manager said that af-
ter Casey was convicted on De-
cember 81, Capt. A. G. w. Mac
Fadden, commanding officer of
the Fleet Sonar School, and two
other Naval officers, requested
the boys release. The Navy men
said Casey was a youth of II or
Is, and had neither friends nor
$3.50. They asked the city man.
ager to release the boy in their
custody pending action of the
City Commission on the ordi-
nance requiring a $3.50 fine for
breaking meters.
Ellingson checked with Judge
Esquinaldo who advised him to
get a letter from the Navy con-
firming the Navy proposition. A
letter to this effect was subse-
quently received by Ellingson
from Capt. MacFadden.
Meanwhile, on December %,
Judge Esquinaldo reopened the
case at the request of the Navy,
suspended his sentence and fined
Casey $500 for court costs.
City Attorney ]. Lancelot Les
ter said tentatively today that
he believed Judge Esquinaldo
had the power to reopen the
case.
"If it had been anybody but
the Navy" Ellingson said, 1--WE
wouldn't have done it."
