Prosecutor Hired for Rahm Trial

Prosecutor Hired for Rahm Trial

Athens, Texas (Sp.) - William Steger, Tyler, a former federal district attorney, has been employed by the Thurman Jackson family of Brownsboro as a special prosecutor to assist Dist. Atty. Jack Hardee and County Atty. Mack Wallace in the trial of the murder case of Dr. C. C. Rahm.

Dr. Rahm was charged with murder in the death of Jackson who was shot in a fight at a meeting of the Brownsboro school board last June 16. He is still in an undisclosed jail and has not made a formal statement. He was secretary of the board.

Hardee said the family consulted with him on the employment of a special prosecutor and that he told the family it would be agreeable with him.

The case must yet be considered by the grand jury before a trial date is set.
