, Tho entire commimily was shocked last Friday when news-
. fRpefs hoadlinod that Frocporl VillagB Tiustsc FHANX MUSSO
J was srreslod on a charge of aiiisinpled grand larceny for al­legedly
irying to exlorl 5S0D from a witness in a vice invcsllgation.
It is much too common a trait for many people to beccTOS hys-f.
oricol and unrationnl in pre-judging a person in a situation sucli as
tills. They forget tu wail for all tlio fncts before condemning a man
and are too-anxious to .accept a charge us eomplcto evidence tliit a
man is guilty. ^
. Anybody can make « sorious charge against anybody . . . oven-agdiRst
presidents and governors . . . But tho charffo itself means
nothing until it is proven.
Mnyor Roburt J. Sweeney, even though from an opposite political
pariy, showed the true- spirit of American justice and won many
new foUowerS: among Prank Musso's friends, %vhen ho publicly stated
•Ijfit'tfltiriMgeBoard would hot talt« any disciplinary action merely
oh'the strength-of •tbe-chnrge agnlnstTrustce Musso. •;'""'
Frank MUBSO appeared befoio Judge Alfred Snmenga this past
' Tupfiday and waived Ih© felony examination, The nexl step to
. clarify this siluation is a Grand Jury hearing which should be
held sontetiine in August. ^
