This would have been big news in the old west. The story would have been told and discussed for years.

It just so happens that I was just looking at a list of Old West outlaws. Geez, what a phone book. Fortunately the lists are alphabetized.

N.B.: On the lower right corner of the page is an old picture of the lynching of one brutal robber-murderer John Heath, who on receiving only a life sentence from a liberal judge, was strung up by the populace of Tombstone. Heck of a story:

http://www.legendsofamerica.com/we-johnheath.html

“We the undersigned, a jury of inquest, find that John Heath came to his death from emphysema of the lungs—a disease common in high altitudes—which might have been caused by strangulation, self-inflicted or otherwise.”

Indeed sounds like a badass band of truck drivers defending their lives & property.

An earlier article said he was shot because he tried to cash a check without two forms of ID.

My old ‘hood. Some parts are seeing a comeback, but obviously the same old elements are at work there.
