In a shocking turn of events, convicted woman Lois Pantages was spared a harsh sentence when Judge Hardy postponed her sentencing until next Monday. The dramatic scene unfolded in a Los Angeles courtroom, where Pantages’ health had deteriorated drastically. Witnesses described her as ‘hysterical,’ refusing food and water. Court physicians were ordered to keep a close eye on her, warning that if her condition didn’t improve, they’d take drastic measures – either transforming her home into a makeshift hospital or relocating her to a proper institution. This development came as a surprise to those expecting a stern punishment for Pantages, who had been convicted of manslaughter in connection with the death of Juro Roku moto.
