  Jack Hilliard (back to camera, closest in pic) has a beer distribution company in Temple TX, hence the Budweiser mugs. As of 2023 the compnay is still in business. Jack's disposition is not known.

  Interesting enough the gun appears to be a German made Luger. Probably not a gun used by the local police back then! I also find it interesting to see some sort of workbench tool behind the window on the left, why is that located in a court building? Could this be the technical evidence department or something? The Luger is being checked in as evidence to be examined indoors?

  Compton Mackenzie was tried for breaching the Official Secrets Act in 1933. www.spartacus.schoolnet.co.uk/Jmackenzie.htm and en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compton_Mackenzie#Other_work Some questions were raised in the Commons about the case. It appears the accused was kept in the Tower: hansard.millbanksystems.com/commons/1933/feb/21/official-...

  So, does the magazine of such a pistol hold twenty rounds? Anyway, was this pistol manufactured in Germany during the immediate pre-Nazi era, in about 1930-32?
