This Is the basis on which he asks his jury to acquit This is the basis on which he has believed he 'will be acquitted with a. firmness that has been unshakable. Lawyers who tried to tell him differently were discharg ed. Offers of compromises made from a district attorney's office that believed it was being called upon to try an in sane man for hlstllfe were ignored. . - - Thaw has stood squarely and con sistently on his original position that "any other man would have been driven to do what -1 did, and under neither the law of man nor God am I to be:hcld responsible."
