Attorney admits tough talk in burro ownership case
Assistant U.S. Attorney in New Mexico concedes his remarks grew harsh in a 1976 call with Roswell businessman Jim Scott. Scott bought 16 wild burros at a 1974 Roswell sale after they were rounded up near Three Rivers. He seeks 10000 for care during 13 months before federal ownership was affirmed by the Supreme Court under the Wild Horse and Burro Act. Grant understands Scott’s predicament.
