RE: Mask For Treason
Gene, if you make it to p. 94 Shelton talks about something that (at least on the face of it) I actually agree with. Apparently Lewis Paine (whom Shelton feels was framed) was allowed to keep his penknife (Shelton calls it a jack-knife) throughout his incarceration/trial. Betty also mentions that he offered it to Doster on the day of the execution. Shelton writes, "A knife in the possession of any prisoner charged with a capital crime is a remarkable circumstance." Maybe I am missing something, but I agree with Shelton on that.
