Habeas Corpus Writ Frees Rebel Leaders in Utah Uprising
U S District Judge Willis Ritter issued a writ of habeas corpus late Friday freeing Julius Twohy and Mrs Etta McCurdy of the True Utes from jail where they faced tribal court sentences for an uprising two weeks earlier. They were released to attorney George Stewart of Roosevelt and will appear July 26 before Judge Ritter to challenge the legality of their confinement and convictions. Stewart aims to free other Indians impacted by the trial, arguing constitutional rights violations. Twohy, 58, was sentenced in Ft Duchesne to pay 160 dollars and serve 80 days for malicious mischief and unauthorized seizure of property. McCurdy received the same as did Jensen.
