Family, Friends & Fellow Officers Remember...

According to the Author of the book The Life and World of Chicago Gangster Frank McEarlane, Daniel Waugh.
Walter Stevens, A Chicago gangster and hired killer. Was charged with the killing of detective Alfred Olin. But was found not guilty after 21 witnesses came from Chicago and testified that he could not have been in Aurora Illinois at the time that officer Olin was shot, because he was flat on his back recovering from gunshot wounds earlier in the year with Chicago police. One of his witnesses was a Chicago policeman and Stevens was found not guilty.

Walter Stevens, was convicted at a separate trial of the assault with intent to kill detective Olin’s partner Office Lester Wedemaier.
He was sentenced to one to 15 years in prison. And was immediately paroled and pardoned by Governor Lem Small.
