The Murder Record
DESPERATE MAN-KILLERS - Paul and John Zeltner - PART 2
DESPERATE MAN-KILLERS (a.k.a. Bloody Riot) PART 2
We continue our story from last week, learning the fate of JOHN ZELTNER. The date is March 25, 1899 when our parties are leaving the office of Justice Burgoon, where they just had a case on trial. Our criminal(s) are: John and Paul Zeltner, German Immigrant brothers who shot and killed in cold-blood Attorney E. S. Westenhaver of North Baltimore in Hoytsville, Wood County, Ohio. The murder was a result of money owed to Attorney Westenhaver by the Zeltners' for attorney fees.
