Description
The first count in the information charged that the defendant obtained $9,000 from Margaret Spurgeon by means of the confidence game. The second count alleged conspiracy with respect to the transaction described in the first count. Mrs. Spurgeon, who was a widow 86 years of age, had moneys on deposit at several banks and savings and loan associations. The testimony on behalf of the people was to the effect that, in addition to the sum of $9,000 alleged in the information, by similar means the defendant had obtained an additional $29,000 from Mrs. Spurgeon, which was substantially all of her invested money. At the time the defendant was an attorney and, according to some of the Peoples testimony, with the cooperation of other persons was able to obtain this money by holding himself out to Mrs. Spurgeon and others as her attorney.
