Thirteenth district councilman Carl I. Jacobson was arrested from the home of a woman, and charged with resorting to a room for immoral purposes. He was later freed of all charges, and he protested his innocence by claiming that he was framed-- a claim that was later verified.
A young man sits on the witness stand with the judge to his left and court officials in the foreground, their backs to the camera.
A different photograph taken on the same occasion appears with the article, "Mrs. Grimes in Nervous Break," Los Angeles Times, 15 Sep 1927: A1.
Text from negative sleeve: Jacobson, Carl I., Councilman; (one image removed of courtroon show #14 on wall)
