Biography
Paul Walton was a Black worker arrested after protesting police interference with a James W. Ford meeting in Los Angeles. A November 4 dispatch printed November 7, 1932 says police broke his kneecap, describes the resulting injury as permanently disabling, and reports that he was freed in court. Those injury assertions are the newspaper account, not an independently established medical diagnosis. No exact jail admission, physical discharge date or total custody duration is supplied.
