LAS VEGAS, NEVADA, September 1, 2015 (Newswire.com) - Howard Robard Hughes Jr., the first American billionaire, famous industrialist, movie mogul, casino owner, and aviation pioneer passed away in April of 1976. It was thought the eccentric, drug-addled genius had died without a will, but a three-paged handwritten will soon came to light. A contentious fight over his vast estate was held in Las Vegas soon after his death and the document known as the “Mormon Will” was found to be fraudulent by a jury.
As a result, the central figure in the court battle, Melvin Dummar, was excoriated as a crook and conman. He had testified that in late 1967 he had rescued an unconscious, hypothermic man in the desert of Western Nevada and the old-timer had confessed he was Howard Hughes. This unbelievable tale caused Dummar to be ostracized and mocked, and several universities, other organizations, and individuals were denied a substantial inheritance. Hughes’ estranged family ended up with the vast fortune.
This is a textbook case of stolen justice. It is said that justice is blind, but in the matter of the Howard Hughes probate trial, justice was blind, deaf, and dumb. As a consequence of overpowering financial superiority and a litany of trial-related crimes, the 1978 jury found for the wrong side, and the complete story of this sordid affair will be laid out in the following pages.
