Gray Everett lies back in a wheelchair with a visor covering his eyes. His mother sits beside him with her hand on his chest, and his hand on top of her own.
Mr. McNeer is accused of shooting his wife and then turning the gun on himself, but maintains that the reverse happened and his wife's death was her own attempted murder-suicide. The bullet is still lodged in his brain.
Photograph appears with the article, "Wife Death Quiz Opens," Los Angeles Times, 25 Oct 1934: A2.
