Grant to Serve Out Long Sentence in Arson Case
Walter A. Grant, once a leading figure in a Pocatello bootlegging ring and convicted of arson attempts against County Attorney C. Douglass Smith, will serve a prison term of 25 to 50 years after a state supreme court ruling. The decision affirmed trial findings, rejected claims of insufficient testimony, and noted the motive to attack the prosecutor while his family slept. Also implicated were William Edwards and Frisco Thomas, both in the penitentiary.
