Reidel Brothers (Reformatory - 1928)
Last week Judge E. W. Crosby sentenced to the Reformatory at Green Bay three young men from the Town of Lynn, Rudolph Reidel age 23, and his brother Louis age 20 and a cousin, George age 19. The young men were brought before Justice Dudley on a charge of breaking into a wayside inn owned by Albert Sternitzky on Highway 10 west of Lynn village and stealing money and goods there from.
The young men had been under suspicion for some time and a watch was left on the premises that caught the young men in the act. They were bound over to Circuit Court by Justice Dudley and there pled guilty as charged. Rudolph was given a sentence from 1 to 3 years; Louis and George each received a sentence of one full year. They were held in the county jail until this week in the hopes of securing certain information from them.
