Subject: murder suspect claims Klingon fluency
Date: 16 Aug 1994 07:31:43 GMT
(Hi Jim, thought I'd submit this for your approval. I heard about this
on a local television station (WTMJ-4) and further read about it in
The Milwaukee Journal.)
James Oswald, 49, an alleged bank robber and accused of murdering
a police officer, told a judge that he was fluent in Klingon and that
some papers confiscated from his jail cell were written in Klingon
and Jovian, a language Oswald claims to have invented. Several
papers written by Oswald were confiscated from his jail cell and
believed to be escape plans, according to the prosecutor; but Oswald
and his attorney claim that the papers are confidential materials between
the client and his attorney and ask that the papers be returned to
Oswald. The judge ruled that the confiscated papers will be examined
by himself and a discision will be made whether they be returned to
Oswald or given over to the prosecutor.
To paraphrase Oswald's attorney, "This is the first time one of
my clients wrote to me in Klingon."
