Sussex Court News


John F. Baker, "a, who lives
near Ellendale, was sent to prison
for two years by Judge James B.
Carey liz Sussex County Superior
Court recently because he had vi
olated his probation of three years
set by Judge Carey on March Is,
1855.
He had been before the court
several times since the original
sentence for breaking and enter
ing, but in each case had not been
found guilty.
This time. however, he was
found guilty in Milford on Octo-
Der 10 of the theft of an electric
saw from the Economy Store and
a radio from Grants.
Deputy Attorney General Ralph
S. Baker, in discussing the case
in court, said that from comments
he had heard from the general pub
lie, it seemed the common belief
that probation is an easy way out,
but that he hoped this case would
help to demonstrate that proba-
ton means lust what it says.
When Baker was first found
guilty in 1856, Judge Carey gave
him the two-year prison term but
suspended sentence and put Baker
on probation for three years, warn
ing him that if he violated the law
during those three years he would
be brought back before the court
and required to serve the suspend
ed two years.
After that time, he was tried in
Court of Common Pleas for driv-
ing without a license but found not
guilty, due to a reasonable doubt
as to whether his wife had been
driving, or as the state contended,
had merely slipped behind the
wheel at the time of arrest.
Early this spring he was tried
before a jury in Superior Court for
the theft of cash from the Sussex
Finance office in Georgetown, but
the case did not get to the jury
because of insufficient evidence
connecting him directly with the
crime.
Baker admitted the new charges
against him when brought before
Judge Carey for parole violation,
but again asked for another
chance" due to his wife and chill
dren.
