Biography
Russell Smart, nineteen, of Belvedere Gardens, was prosecuted during the Los Angeles-area agricultural strike. The June 4, 1936 Western Worker, page 2, reports his guilty plea to riot and unlawful assembly and a sentence of 180 days in county jail, with ninety days suspended. This imposed term does not establish that either ninety or 180 days had actually been served. Exact arrest, sentencing and discharge dates remain unknown.
