Orchard Tears Move on Stand in Idaho Haywood Trial
In Boise on July 33 the Haywood trial resumed with William Orchard on the stand. He described planning and changes to a bomb used in the Steunenberg case, his conversion at prison, and prompts that led him to confess to McParland. Orchard testified of a prior Canada stay as a Mason and of meeting Governor Peabody, who confronted him. The defense probed Orchard’s past crimes, finances, and motives, framing his statements as coerced and revealing broader union organizing details and defense fund figures.
