Supreme Court denies habeas for Moyer Haywood Pettibone
The United States Supreme Court rejects the habeas corpus writs for Moyer Haywood and Pettibone of the Western Federation of Miners, jailed in Ada County Idaho on charges tied to Governor Steunenberg’s assassination. The ruling centers on extradition procedure and jurisdiction, with Justice Harlan approving the Idaho court process and Justice Metcalf dissenting on federal relief. The decision underscores that even if extradition was flawed, federal rights were not violated and Idaho may proceed with trial.
