A propos de cet article

A Wrongfully Convicted Bomber? [California]. [Mooney, Thomas J. (1882-1942)]. In the Matter of the Application Made on Behalf of Thomas J. Mooney for a Pardon: Decision of Hon. James Rolph, Jr., Governor of the State of California, Together with the Report of Hon. Matt I. Sullivan, Former Chief Justice of the Supreme Court of the State of California, And Special Advisor to the Governor in the Above Entitled Proceeding. Sacramento: California State Printing Office, 1932. 93 pp. Stapled pamphlet in printed wrappers. Light toning and negligible light soiling to wrappers, bold inscription "Compliments of Matt I.

The case became a cause celebre among liberals, labor activists and defenders of civil liberties, among them Felix Frankfurter and Clarence Darrow. This report, compiled by three prominent California jurists on behalf of Governor James Rolph, Jr., concludes that Mooney's conviction was fair and that without compelling new evidence, which he had not provided, his pardon should be denied. Our copy is inscribed by one of these jurists, Matt I. Sullivan [1857-1937], former chief justice of the Supreme Court of California. Sullivan was also a close friend and advisor of Governor Rolph, who had publicly stated that he would follow Sullivan's recommendation (and thus "distance himself from any political damage resulting from a denial of the appeal") (Worthen). Rolph kept to his word and denied the pardon. Mooney was eventually pardoned seven years later by a more liberal governor. Worthen, Governor James Rolph and the Great Depression in California 130.…
