Evidence-Corroboration In Criminal Cases

Michigan Law Review

On the night of September 12, 1931, Mrs. Thalia Massie, while walking unescorted along a road near Honolulu, was forced into a car, taken to a lonely spot, and attacked by five young men. The five alleged attackers were placed on trial for rape. The jury was unable to reach a verdict and a mistrial was declared.
