Rahm Trial Set At Orange

Rahm Trial Set At Orange

Orange, Texas (UPI) - The trial of Dr. Charles Rahm on charges of murder and assault to murder in the death of a Brownsboro lumberman on June 16 will be held Dec. 12 in 128th District Court.

The case was transferred to Orange last week by District Judge Melvin Johnston of Athens.

Rahm, secretary of the Brownsboro school board and former mayor of Brownsboro, was indicted on charges of murder and assault to murder in the death of Thurman Jackson, 42, Brownsboro lumber company operator.

Jackson was shot in a free-for-all at a Brownsboro school board meeting. Minutes before he was killed he had demanded that the school board itemize some of the bills presented for payment at the June meeting.

Rahm, osteopath, resigned from his school board post after the shooting. He will be defended by Charles Tessmer of Dallas.
