Legal question arises in new county over jurisdiction in a murder case
A unique law issue emerges from a Sanders county murder charge tried in Missoula county. The final question: can the case be legally prosecuted and tried in the correct county when the offense occurred in a preexisting county that later became part of a park area. The preliminary hearing occurred in Missoula, binding the defendant over to the Missoula grand jury, but county reorganizations complicate jurisdiction. A demurrer was sustained and the defendant discharged, ruling Sanders county never had shrine jurisdiction over the case ground.
