.wire Court mav rf (AP)?It's now up to the state Supreme Court to decide whether convicted murderer Louise Whitted should be tried again for the 1981 slaying of her husband. Whitted's attorneys told the high court Monday that her grand jury hearing was a "rubber stamp" procedure and made legal challenges of other areas of the case. The Supreme Court usually takes six weeks after oral arguments before issuing a ruling on an appeal. Whitted, a former beauty queen, was convicted in February 1982 of murdering Charles Edward "Bill" Whitted while he slept at their home near Travelers Rest. She is serving a life sentence.

"The defendant needs to learn if a fair and impartial grand jury proceeding was held," Henry argued. He said such proceedings and their transcripts are traditionally cloaked in secrecy in Greenville County. Henry cited a previous state Supreme Court ruling holding that grand juries are entitled to hear more than the prosecuting officer's version of a case. In Whitted's case, her lawyers contended, the grand jury only heard from sheriff's investigator Bill Hitchins. Assistant Attorney General Carol f T SOUTH { i S] B ...to talk to some I F !

In the Whitted case. Hitchins' testimony was not all hearsay testimony, Adams said. Whitted's daughter Kathy and her daughter's boyfriend, Chris Anderson, also were charged in the slaying. Kathy Whitted was convicted of conspiracy and accessory before the fact of murder and sentenced in Family Court. Her sentence, as well as Anderson's, are to be completed this year, Taylor said. Anderson, who was a central witness for the prosecution in Whitted's trial, pleaded guilty in Family Court to murder.
