RICHARDSON JURY ACQUITS SLAYER "Not Guilty on Ground of In sanity," Is Verdict Given in 45 Minutes. CROWD PRESENT CHEERS Prisoner Is Remanded to Custody of Sheriff Cntll Commission Shall e Pass on His Sanity Three Ballots Are Taken. - Aurellus M. Richardson, accused of murder In the first degree, wss ac quitted yesterday afternoon In 45 min utes after the Jury retired for deliber ation. As he stood to hear the reading of the verdict the prisoner sppeared nervous, but be made no demonstration,, although the crowd which packed the courtroom yelled and stamped upon the floor as soon as the words "not guilty" fell upon their ears. Sheriff Stevens was present and at once put a stop to the disorder. Judge Gatens remanded the prisoner to the custody of the Sher iff until an Insanity commission can be appointed to pass upon the question of Richardson's mental condition. "Not guilty on the ground of insan ity," was the verdict of the Jury. Tho talesmen retired at 3:30 P. M. for delib eration. At 4:16 they announced to Bailiff Weinberger that they were ready wtth a verdict. Five minutes later they handed the verdict to Judge Gatens, In whose department the case hss been tried, and It was read by Deputy Clerk Brlggs. The large courtroom, known as No. 1. was occupied when the Jury was ready to bring In tho verdict, so Judge Gantenbeln permitted It to be received la bis courtroom. Jury Takes Three Ballots. The Jury took only three votes. Oa the first, a trial vote, 10 stood for ac quittal and two for conviction. The next vote showed them to be 11 for acquittal and one for conviction. Upon the third vote they were unanimously in favor of acquittal. Richardson shot and killed Jesse C Hale at the fl reboot house on East Water street, August 15. Hsle was at th time telephoning to Mrs. Richardson, In whose company he had been found on numerous occasions before the killing. iticnarason orten begged her to cesse receiving Hale's sttentlons. Hale st one time attempted to commit suicide by taking carbolic acid. Prediction Is that an Insanity commls slon will not find Richardson Insane. as Drs. House and Williamson examined him during the trial and found htm sane, The unwritten law has been the real basis of the defense made by John F. Logan and W. II. Fowler, defendant's counsel. A part of Judge Gatens' Instructions dealing with the question of Insanity was as follows- Insanity to excuse crime must be such as dethrones resson and renders the party committing the crime Incap- Die of discerning right end wrong, or or understanding and appreciating the extent, nature, consequences or effect of his wrongful act. In Its lexal sense. In. nlty Is any defect or disease of the mind which renders a person Incapable of entertaining a criminal Intent. Since criminal Intent la sn essential element of every crime, no person who is so In sane that he cannot entertain it is criminally responsible for his acts. Emotion No Excuse, Judge Says. -It Is presumed thst a person Intends the ordinary consequences of his own voluntary act. and so far as the capabil 117 10 lorm a criminal intent is con cerned. It is sufficient to hold the de fendant responsible under this Indict ment ir, when he committed the act charged In the indictment, provided he did commit tho act, he had at that time surricient reason and understanding to enable him to know the nature, quality or consequences of the act he was com mitting, or to distinguish between right ana wrong as to sucn act. n you are satisfied beyond a reason able doubt that when Richardson killed Hale, if he did so. he was controlled by mere emotional insanity or temoorarv frenxy or passion arising from excitement or anger and not from any mental-dis ease wnatever, you are Instructed that the defendant baa failed to establish his defense of insanity, and you should ren der a verdict of guilty of the crime charged or guilty of one of the lesser crimes included. ins jury wss as follows: Sam .
