...demagoguery what he had been unable to deliver in fact: that the Warren Commission report was a "fraud" and that the whole apparatus of the Federal Government was being used to hide the truth. He mentioned the defendant by name only once, all but confirming Defense Attorney F. Irving Dymond's charge that Shaw "was brought in here for no other purpose than to create a forum to present this attack on the Warren Commission." Garrison's last gasp did not impress the jury. The twelve men deliberated just 50 minutes before unanimously acquitting Shaw on the first...
Truth Serum. The state's key witness, Book Salesman Perry Russo, was severely handled by Defense Counsel Irvin Dymond. On crossexamination, Dy-mond led Russo carefully through the events of the party at which he said that he had heard Shaw, Lee Oswald and David Ferric, a former airlines pilot, discuss ways of killing the President. After two days of contradiction-riddled testimony, Russo made the state's case as shaky as JellO. He also displayed considerable antagonism toward Garrison and his staff, who had extracted depositions from him under hypnotism and the influence of Sodium Pentothal...

He was quickly overruled by Judge Edward Haggerty, a raspy-voiced jurist who has displayed as much feel for sweep and pageantry as Garrison; he had introduced the jurors to the press by parading them around a motel swimming pool. Said...
...last week also pressed its Civil Aeronautics Board application to expand west to Las Vegas, Los Angeles and San Diego. If granted, the new routes would not only give Frontier more lucrative long hauls but also lift it into the ranks of the major trunk carriers. As far as Dymond is concerned, that is only a start. He may never win CAB approval, but in recent months he has peppered the board with proposals for everything from through service between Miami and San Francisco to a run south to Mexico City and Acapulco. Grandiose as all that seems...
