Birth and death dates, final case outcome and exact total custody time are not established here. Exact individual custody dates are not given.

The Daily Worker of October 23, 1934, page 3, names twenty-eight defendants in the Phoenix FERA relief-workers strike prosecution. It reports their demand for separate jury trials, a delayed arraignment because Judge H. C. Speakman was absent, and an objection by Judge G. A. Rodgers to differing bail amounts on the same riot charge. Thomas J. Croaff is named as defense counsel. The arrests followed the September 6 demonstration attacked by police and deputies under Governor Moeur. This is a pretrial report, not an additional arrest, imposed sentence or continuous custody measurement. Allegations of political targeting and official violence are attributed to the newspaper.
The October 23 Phoenix dispatch names McCall among relief-strike defendants already out on bail. No exact discharge day or final verdict supplied.
