Counterplot theory dominates Orchard cross examination
Boise Ida June 11. Counsel for William Haywood pressed a counter conspiracy theory linking the Western Federation of Miners to the dynamiting of Independence Station and the attempted life attack on Fred Bradley and his family. They sought to discredit Orchard by alleging boasting and coaching while showing Haywood Moyer and Pettibone had limited involvement, then aimed to undermine the Bradley crime account by portraying Orchard’s claims as depraved fiction. The proceedings emphasized Orchard's alleged mania for crime and questioned his reliability.
