(Continued from Page 1) not be furthered by any continued prosecution of this matter," Yost continued in his motion. He added that investigation indicated these matters "suould be settled in a civil action" and nothing would be accomplished by continuing criminal proceedings. In the motion to dismiss the charge of theft by receiving stolen property, Yost said "the facts In general are that certain persons who have pleaded guilty in the magistrate court and Juvenile court have alleged that after stealing the sheep they took them to the sheep ranch of McDaniel and also they claimed that they stole the sheep at the request of McDaniel." The charge, according to the complaint, involved the theft of 45 sheep between Feb. 1 and March 15,1972, "stolen from one Melvln D.

Smith." Yost, in his dismissal motion, said he is now of the opinion "that the ends of justice would be better served by the dismissal," and listed four reasons: (1) "That the piece of evidence which involved the attendance of (lie vehicle used to steal the sheep has been lost;" (2) That the testimony of the witnesses for the state has been indefinite as to times and as to the number of sheep taken(3) That during the period involved, no law enforcement officer Inspected the sheep peas of McDaniel to determine whether or not any sheep were In fact at McDaniel's sheep farm; (4) Testimony given at the preliminary hearing by defense witnesses was that they did not receive the sheep allegedly delivered to them; therefore a jury would be confronted with conflicting testimony and "it would be extremely difficult to arrive at a fair verdict in this matter," McDaniel, along with the other two policemen who later last fall were dig. missed from their jobs, faces a misde. meanor charge of causing minor children to come within the purview of the Youth Rehabilitation Act, allegedly by encouraging them to steal. A trial is scheduled in Magistrate Court, Sec. 2, next Wednesday.
