Feminist’s murder trial
delayed for one month
United Press International
GRETNA, La. — The trial of
California feminist leader Ginny
Foat on charges of committing
murder 18 years ago Tuesday
was postponed for a month by a
judge who cited pre-trial public
ity and lost time for legal prepa
ration.
State District Judge Robert
Burns said recent newspaper
articles questioning the availa
bility of a witness in the 1965
killing could prejudice potential
jurors. He also said attorneys
had to spend time recently pre
paring pre-trial motions, leaving
them with little time to prepare
their cases.
“I think there would be an
injustice to both sides if we were
to go to trial today,” said Burns.
He ordered the trial to start
Nov. 7.
Foat refused to comment as
she walked out of the court
house with her attorneys, but
friend and fellow California
feminist leader Kay Tsenin said
Foat was disappointed.
“In Ginny’s mind, the quicker
she can get her case in front of

acquitted,” she said.
Another supporter said the
delay would help defense attor
neys, who spent the summer and
the entire month of September
trying unsuccessfully to con
vince a series of state courts that
the murder charge should have
been thrown out because Foat
was denied a speedy trial.
“It’s like studying for a test —
you always wish you had another
week or a month. But we were
prepared today,” said Jan Hol
den, leader of a defense fund
that has raised more than
$40,000 and needs another
$50,000 to cover attorney’s fees
and other costs.
Foat planned to return im
mediately to California. H
attorneys insisted she still cou t
get a fair trial in Jefferson P; y

officials should help pay the
medical costs of a critically ill
AIDS patient sent to San Fran
cisco for treatment against his
will, San Francisco’s public
health director said Tuesday.
Dr. Mervyn Silverman said
he couldn’t believe Shands Hos
pital in Gainesville, Fla., spent
$7,000 to fly Morgan MacDo
nald, 27, to San Francisco by
Lear jet a week ago and left him
on a stretcher at an AIDS re
search foundation with $300
pocket money.
Mayor Dianne Feinstein had
telegraphed Florida Gov. Bob
Graham Saturday demanding
an investigation of the incident.
She said the patient was
“dumped” in San Francisco, an
act she called “outrageous and
inhumane.”
“We’re in the health business,
not the transportation busi
ness,” Silverman said. “We can’t
forget that here’s an individual
in an extreme condition. To be
moved about like this is tragic.”
Silverman said it was costing
the city at least $500 a day to care
for MacDonald at San Francisco
General Hospital’s special AIDS
ward, the only one of its kind
the nation set up to treat tl
deadly Acquired Immune De
ciency Syndrome.
MacDonald was listed in po
but stable condition Tuesday.
“I certainly would hope th
the state of Florida, or the he
pital — I’m not sure which
would reimburse San Francisi
for the care we are providing
