COUNSEL'S DRAMATIC STATEMENT ANTHONY EDEN
Heath Killed In State Of Progressive Mania"
"Partial Insanity" Airman's Plea
London, Sept. 25. Sitting 'quietly in the dock in London's Central Criminal Court today, tall, handsome and fair-
· haired George Neville Clevely Heath, 29-year- old ex-pilot, heard his counsel, Mr. J. D. Cass- well, in a dramatic statement to a tense court deckiro: “Heath killed and terribly mutilated two women in a state of progressive mania. It is something which can only be called sadism.” Heath's plea, his counsel said, would be one of "partial insanity."
Although or prosecution had proceeded with the charge of murdering 33-year-old Margery
Gardner at a London hotel, Mr. Casswell today directed his questiouing of police witnesses to the murder of Doreen Marshall, aged 21, at Bournemouth, on which charge Heath had also been srut for trial.
He was certifiable as morally insane.
