Maximum Penalty Urged for
Canyonville Woman After
Plea of Guilty to Involun
tary Manslaughter Charge
ROSEBURG, Ore., May 19. UP)
A plea of guilty to an Indictment j
charging involuntary manslaughter
was entered tliia morning by Cordelia
Hopkins, 32, before Circuit Judge
Carl E. Wlmberly, who postponed
passing of sentence until 10 a. m.
Friday. It was indicated by the
court that sentence might be still
further postponed In the event Mrs.
Hopkins is neeed as a witness In the
trial of her husnand, Leonard Hop
kins, indicted on a charge of assault
and battery.
Mrs, Hopkins la accused of inflict
ing head blown which caused the
death of her four -year -old step
daughter, Barbara Irene Hopkins, at
Canyonville, April 17. The father,
who la accused of brutally beating
the child, has entered a plea of not
guilty.
Maximum Is Vrged.
In today's arraignment. District At
torney J. V. Long urged the court to
Impose the maximum penalty. He
outlined to the court the findings of
physicians who tn their autopsy re
port stated that the child's death
was due to blows on the head caus
ing & hemorrhage. The district at
torney told the court that brutality
had been evidenced far beyond any
reasonable measure of punishment
which might be required for correc
tion of the child and contended that
no leniency had been shown.
Attorney Ray B. Compton. defense
counsel, told the court that while
his client was legally sane, that she
Is subject to spells of anger and
passion, due to disease.
. Woman Diseased.
"Through no fault of her own,"
Compton told the court, "this woman
has contracted a disease which we
are told causes more than 80 percent
of the Insanity In this country. While
she is undoubtedly of legally sound
mind, her condition causes spells of
a lack of control. Aroused over mis
behavior of the child, she has ad
mittedly been unduly severe in ad
ministering punishment. We are not
denying the acts, nor attempting to
avoid responsibility, but her 'condi
tion should be considered In deter
mining the degree of punishment.
"The law not only takes Into con
sideration retribution for crime, but
also Includes the matter of correc
tion,' Compton said. "This woman.
during her period ff confinement In
a penal Institution, can be treated
for her condition, and may recover
from the disease which has undoubt
edly had an important part In this
tragedy."
