The Sad Tale of Jimmy O'Connell
Posted By: runscott
In the version I read, Dolan was quite serious about the whole thing, and Youngs, Frisch and Kelly were well aware of what was going on. Landis banned Dolan as the instigator, and O'Connell for "evasive" answers during questioning; however, I read Youngs' and Kelly's depositions and they were equally evasive. |
