Biography
Frank Hermandez was a one-armed worker described as an interpreter and director of the new Mexican labor union. He was one of five Imperial Valley strike prisoners before Judge A. C. Finney on May 15, 1928, and was denied reduced bail. The next day, before Justice I. Mayfield, he pleaded guilty to disturbing the peace and received a six-month suspended sentence on the district attorney’s motion. The suspended term is not counted as time served, nor the hearing as an exact physical discharge. The newspaper prints Hermandez.
