Innocent Indian Victim Lynching Prompted North Dakota Ruling
The North Dakota Supreme Court in Grand Forks on a Wednesday ordered a new trial for Caudet after finding uncorroborated confessions by Holy Crack and Areland. They tied those to the murder of the Spicer family, while alibi testimony by Dr. Ross at Standing Rock challenged the statements, noting prior confessions by Moly Tenek and others did not name Caudet. The ruling denounces the Caudet lynching as a foul crime and calls for punishment of the murderers.
