Maybe you should tell Elm's and Pogue's widow's that what happened was justified. Not only did he commit a crime to them, but to every law-abiding sportsman on these forums. This wasn't his first experience with the law for poaching, and I think that's the point the people are trying to make. He didn't have to live the type of life he did and could have avoided the problems his life created. There is a couple of other points you keep making. If he had 300 people willing to testify for him, why didn't they? You also keep saying that Elm's kept coming out of the tent with gun in hand, now I suppose that's possible, but it was testified in court that his hands had pelts in them, it was also testified by the Idaho state pathologist that Elms was shot in the back, I don't care how else you slice it, that's just wrong. Anytime you kill someone you take everything he is and everything he will be away from him and that's not something to be taken lightly. If this would have been just between Dallas and Pogue most people probably wouldn't care so much about the outcome, but it wasn't.

Now don't let a little thing like facts get in the way of a good yarn against the establishment and a martyr in the making.
