- Description:
- Assemblyman Vernon Kilpatrick is accused of helping plan the economic collapse of the United States, but he denies any involvement with the Communist party. A witness testifies that Kilpatrick invited her to meetings where the planned collapse was discussed. Kilpatrick denies these claims and maintains that he is not a Communist. Another witness testifies that Kilpatrick is a nice gentleman, despite their political differences. Kilpatrick also denies allegations of being a social friend to another witness. The lawsuit between Kilpatrick and Beverly Hills Police Chief C. H. Anderson revolves around these accusations.
