Description
In 1936, relator was arrested for the murder of his wife. Within a few hours after arrest he had signed a confession admitting the killing. Thereafter he was indicted for first degree murder, a charge to which he pleaded not guilty. At the arraignment the court assigned the public defender, Jerome Jackman, to act as relators counsel. Later, in open court, relator pleaded guilty to second degree murder at which time the prosecution for first degree murder was dropped. Relator was given a life sentence and incarcerated in Stillwater prison, where he is still confined.
