G. W. Bissel, at the special request OF
the Sheriff's Office. the Chairman Of
the Board OF County Commissioners,
and the Editor Of the Press. Mr.. Bis
sci is one Of the ablest lawyers in the
State of Idaho, and personally con-
Quoted the prosecution of this case,
and after four days of hard con-
sciencious work, in as we'll a tried
case from the prosecutions standpoint
as l ever set in, the jury returned a
verdict Of, Not Guilty"
Covers Record.
This practically covers the record
OF the Prosecuting Attorneys office,
during my term Of office and you will
observe, that although we have had
five jury cases tried, and there hasn't
been a conviction, yet, the cases tried
by myself, we're cases in which the
chances OF conviction, we're at least
not greater than in the other cases
tried, but the percentage OF convic-
lions are equal. SO much for this
end Of 1t, IL the public desire to know
what the trouble is from the Prescott
ing Attorneys view point, l will be
glad, the Editor willing, to give in the
future, a few of the causes for an ap-
parent disrespect for law on the par
of the public. Remember, the Grimm.
al cases tried TO a jury, are only the
cases where the defendant at least has
a so percent chance of acquittal, o.
IL is a case where the defendant goes
to trial on account of the seriousness
of the charge, then again, the State IL
required to prove, Beyond a Reason
able Doubt, every allegation of thu
Courts, where there is a question tina
Is doubtful, to resolve 1t in favor o
the defendant, thus you see, the pro
secution starts with the odds agains
them, and | believe, that a good rul'
for everyone is presumed to be in
nocent until proved guilty, and
believe In u jury system.
