The opinion
ROBERTS, Justice,
concurring.
I agree that appellant’s entitlement to a new trial is clearly established by this record and the trial court’s grant of a new trial must be affirmed. See Commonwealth v. Bennett, 471 Pa. 419, 428 , 370 A.2d 373, 378 (1977) (Roberts, J., joined by Manderino, J., dissenting).
MANDERINO, J., joins in this concurring opinion.
