Carl Estep, 10, was charged and convicted of
rape. He chose to stand trial before Judge Kathryn
Lawlor Shook 1t was her duty to sentence him.
Estep sentenced to life Imprisonment on the
morning of January II.
Because of the interest conferred on this sem
fencing, The Sentinel is printing the entire proceed
ings. This transcript accompanied Esteps record in
order for any future parole board to have the full pic
tlre of Esteps crime against society.
Barnard T. Welsh, Rockville attorney represent
ed Carl Estep. Leonard T. Hardy was the prosecuting
attorney.
PROCEEDINGS
Judge Shook: All right, we will proceed with the
sentencing of Carl M. Estep.
'Mr. Welsh, do you desire to make any state
ment before the Court sentences your client?
"Mr. Welsh: l believe, Your Honor, it
about six years ago that l was defending George
Lightfoot in this courtroom and believe Your Honor
had been appointed Judge and that you observed that
trial.
Judge Shook I had been appointed Judge, but
/ didn't observe the trial, Mr.. Welsh. was away al
the time. The other three Judges, as you know sat
on it,
Mr. Welsh: know you were not on the Bench.
Judge Shook l am familiar with it, however.
Mr.. Welsh: There three Judges the
Bench and they sentenced him to die That case went
to the Court of Appeals very elaborate record and
at that time / attempted because / felt that the
MNaghten Rule was not a proper rule, to get the
Court of Appeals to reverse the MNaghten Rule and
adopt different test of responsibility The Court of
Appeals affirmed and took the to the Governor
and the Governor committed the sentence, and Cole,
today, is still alive.
Il hear from his family, and / hear from him.
And within the narrow limitations that there can be
life in prison, for life term Cole is living that life
Il feel that society has not suffered from the fact
that he is living instead of dead
"Now, the Governor who committed that sentence
is not there think of the things that added lus-
ter to his term of office the attitude that he took
toward capital punishment.
"And now we come TO the defendant Estep who
committed crime against person He committed
the crime of rape, but he did not take life Your
Honor.
Simply because the legislature gives to the Court
power to take life does not mean that the Court is
obligated to exercise that power Particularly in a
rape where the limitation on sentence is so broad
from Is months to death.
There will be no appeal, or chance of a success
full appeal in this case. There in the
record. There was no trial to jury, Your Honor
The jury did not exist and, therefore, there was no
voice of the people, as indicated by the voice of the
people when the jury gives verdict that deprves him
of his life.
1.-THE Governor who is there now frankly do
not know how he feels about these and So is

supposedly based on the exports of
printing companies in the District
of Columbia which employ mora
than one hundred persons. This
seemed to me to be AN unusually
large amount, and so | made some
personal inquiries.
The result of necessarily bricf
investigation was to learn that in
the District of Columbia there ar"
only seven printing houses that en-
ploy more than one hundred per
sons. The Secrctary's release pur-
ports to be based on information
solicited from companies in that
category
Yet a spokesman for these print
ers has advised me that they did
not advise the Department of Com
merce that they had exports of S46
million in 1860 On the contrary, |
was informed that they had actual

to inspect the Jail, but it is Gus
tomary for the Grand Jury also
to inspect the Court House, the
Sheriff's residence, the County
Roads Garage and offices of vari-
Gus County officials in the Court
House and report on the condi-
tons you find and make such
recommendation as you deem
proper. You should have before
you a copy of the report of the
September, 1861, Term Grand
Jury, so that you can review its
recommendations and make in
quiry as TO whether or not those
recommendation have been COM
piled with. 1t is also customary
for the Grand Jury to inspect the
books of the County Treasurer.
This does not mean of course that
you audit these books, but means
that you simply ascertain to your
own satisfaction that they are be-
ing kept properly and that the
system used is sufficient. Now the
work of the Grand Jury has been
considerably lessened in recent
years for reason that after an &C
cuscd has been arrested on a
charge preferred against him, he
may waive indictment by the
Grand Jury and seek an immcdi-
ate trial before the Court. These
cases are of course speedily heard
and disposed of by the Court and
eliminates the necessity of your
time and effort on those cases.
Upon retiring to the Grand
Jury room you will organize by
appointing two of your members
as Clerks and one as a Door Keep
er, And again | wish to express
my personal thanks to you for
the service you are about to rem
der and realize it is a job that
must be done and it is appreci-
ated by the Court and by society
The Clerk will now swear the

will begin your duties. Thank you.

has no right to advise you whether
or not to indict, but he may adj
wise you as to whether certain
evidence will be admissible at the
trial of the case, if you do indiCt,
and your decision then rests upon
such advice as he would give you.
You should consider all of the
evidence which may throw light
on the matter under investigation
whether it may tend to establish
the guilt or innocence of the ac-
cused, Now of course you are only
going to hear the States evidence
IN the case. You will not hear the
accused's defense, but, should
some evidence be presented to you
to tend TO show the innocence of
the accused you should take that
into consideration. After you have
heard the evidence with respect
to any charge you should then pro-
coed to deliberate among your
selves as to whether or not the
evidence is sufficient to justify
the finding of an indictment and
bringing the accused to trial. 1t is
necessary that at least twelve of
your members vote in favor of
finding an Indictment An affirma-
tive vote of a mere majority of
your members present will not be
sufficient to sustain a valid In
dictment unless such an affirma-
tive vote consists of at least twelve
of your members. By that, is meant
if some of your members should
not be present at the time vote
is taken for some reason or other,
you would still have to have the
twelve votes rather than the
simple majority of those present.
You are charged that your pro-
ceedings are to be absolutely
secret pending the return by the
Jury of an Indictment Even after
the return of an indictment, you
should not disclose in any way
the nature of your deliberations
any indictment In fact, nothing
should be disclosed as to your
proceedings unless you are sum-
moned and directed by the Court
to make such disclosure. In other
words the only information that
comes from your body is the fact
that you have found an indictment
in any particular case. While teSti-
mony is being produced before you
the only persons allowed in the
Grand Jury Room besides your
members are the States Attorney
and the witness testifying before
you. After you have heard and
concluded the testimony in con-
ncction with particular charge
and you are prepared to deliber-
ate the matter, no one then, eX-
cept yourselves, should be present
in the Grand Jury room. Perhaps
most of the cases that will be
brought TO your attention are ones
that have already been Investigated
by the law enforcement officers
OF the County. You may however,
on your own motion originate
charges against offenders if any
individual Juror has any knoWl-
edge of violations of the Criminal
Laws, and it is the duty to call
same to the attention of the Jury
and cause such investigation as
may seem necessary or desirable
under the circumstances
Now it is the duty of the County
Commissioners to maintain the
public buildings in a good state of
repair You are legally required
