How later courts describe this case

  • fines paid prior to death of defendant "analogous to time served and are not refundable"
  • “Rather than rendering him incompetent to testify without some sort of psychiatric examination, [a witness’] penchant for perjury simply provide[s] the defense with an ample opportunity to undermine [the witness’] credibility on cross-examination.”
