Description
Photo of Otto Sanhuber in court. Nicknamed the "bat man" because he lived in the attic of Mr. and Mrs. Fred Oesterreich and was Mrs. Oesterreich's lover. Testimony regarding scientific handwriting tests was introduced by the prosecution in an effort to show that Sanhuber once had a joint bank account with Mrs. Walburga Oesterreich, wife of the man he is accused of killing.
