Another of those 'what if?' moments or events in the case.
If this account is true, the odds that Amer Ben Ali could have
murdered Carrie Brown would
have dropped to zero...had it not been for the intervention of a
saloon keeper named Scheller.
If Ali had received sixty days as Justice Scheper was
considering giving Ali for vagrancy, he'd have
been in Queens County Jail until May 13th. Allegedly, the
intervention of the saloon-keeper
contributed to the lesser sentence of 30 days ( March 14-April
13).
Ali was released after 30 days on April 13th
On a side note, had George Frank pressed charges against Ali
back in January of that year, Ali could have
received six months on the burglary charge. That, too, would
have removed any possibility of Brown's death in April.
