Four bullets were found in millionaire George Marsh's body. Evidence indicated that he had not been robbed. A piece of cloth and a button were found near the corpse. In the rooming house where Marsh lived, an overcoat missing all of the
buttons was found in the abandoned room of Willis Dow. The weave of the
overcoat matched the weave pattern of the piece of cloth found at the crime
scene. Based on this fiber evidence, Dow was convicted of the murder and sentenced to death. Identify and summarize the evidence presented in this case. Do you think the evidence in this case was sufficient to find Dow guilty of murder? Why or why not?
