In a shocking turn of events, 23-year-old William A. Dorr, accused of brutally murdering wealthy Lynn, Massachusetts, manufacturer George E. Marsh, was brought to Essex County Jail in Salem, Massachusetts, after a grueling four-day trip from his home in California. The young suspect was in a state of collapse upon arrival and was rushed to the hospital department, where a nurse, Ms. Florence Thomas, reported that he was slowly starving himself to death. It remains to be seen whether Dorr will survive to face trial in June.
