Mrs. Nellie D. Madison Guilty of the Murder of Her Husband; Verdict Carries Death Penalty I i CT! fl mSR -IS w! S Im . ? Eaß * s Ik f• |B : f XJ K $g ~ SS® - ।-'I MRS. NELLIE D. MADISON A verdict of conviction, without recommendation, was returned by a jury at Los Angeles recently in superior court, against Mrs. Nellie D. Madison, former Montana cowgirl, accused of murdering her husband, Eric D. Madi son, film studio employe and the son of a Danish senator. The verdict carries the death penalty. Mrs. Madison heard the verdict without show of emotion. The woman was accused of shooting her husband to death after a quarrel in their apartment house last March 24. The body was found the next morning, shots had been heard, and two hours afterward Mrs. Madison was seen to leave the apartment. Mrs. Madison was arrested two days later at a secluded mountain camp. She denied she had been hiding and claimed to know nothing of her hus band’s death. She maintained her icy calm until she took the witness stand. Her defense was that she did not believe her husband dead, the victim of the slaying having been an enemy of her husband. She maintained she attended the funeral of the slaying victim out of “love and loyalty” to her hus band, who had gone into hiding after killing his enemy. Her attorneys argued she went to the funeral to help con ceal the killing done by her husband. Mrs. Madison was married four times and is a sister of Daniel Mooney, former sheriff at Dillon, Mont. The prosecution maintained she was of a jealous nature and had deliberately shot her husband as he lay on the bed in their apartment. The prosecution branded her de fense as “fantastic.” She was sentenced a few days ago. Court attaches said one woman, whose name they did not recall, was sentenced to death about 20 years ago in Cal ifornia, but her sentence later was commuted to life im prisonment.
