Daughters Testify At Retailer's Trial
Deep into the defense's portion of the proceedings, the trial against Pennsylvania retailer and con organizer Michael George on charges stemming from the 1990 slaying of his then-wife Barbara in his Michigan retail establishment enjoyed a trio of dramatic highlights yesterday. First, George's daughters, four and two at the time of the slaying, testified on behalf of their father. Second, the court heard further testimony about a gentleman with a fake beard seen near the retail establishment before the murders. Third, a motion to dismiss brought by defense attorney Carl Malinga was dismissed. I could see this whole thing wrapping up in sudden fashion, although I have no idea how it will proceed from here or for how much longer.
