Orchard Letters and Alaska Scheme in Steunenberg Case
The defense challenges letters from Orchard to friend Tom are involved in a wider Alaska letter conspiracy. Orchard swears Haywood arranged the Alaska letter with Pettibone and Moyer aware, while the state cites a Spokane telegram and a Caldwell jail unsigned letter to imply coordination. The prosecution argues the letters reveal a conspiracy and that Orchard received counsel after his arrest.
