Opening of Steunenberg murder trial in Caldwell
The opening of the case against William Haywood centers on the Federation of Miners and a nationwide conspiracy. Prosecutors allege a string of murders linked to the federation as the organization sought control of mining communities. Testimony names Harry Orchard and John Simpkins among key figures, with witnesses from Caldwell detailing Orchard’s movements and the explosion that killed Frank Steunenberg. The defense objects to much of the testimony, while the state argues for broader connection to the conspiracy. Orchard's transfer to Boise amid security concerns is noted.
