- Mary Plettner (left), juror for the Helen Wills Love (right) murder trial, was excused from her juror duties when she was found to be drunk on grain alcohol. Vada Sullivan, apparently a court officer, is pictured steadying Mrs. Plettner. Judge Smith found Plettner in contempt of court but delayed her sentence until the next day because of her condition.
