My daughter and I traveled from California to Boise to attend the premier of the program at the Egyptian Theater on the evening of November 7th, 2007. It was quite an exciting premier and an interesting and enjoyable few days' visit.

I hope this interactive component will allow an opportunity for thoughtful discussion and debate to continue regarding these important events. We have already heard from a number of you with family or other personal connections to the principals in this saga, some with bits and pieces of new information and others with items, documents and possessions of historical interest. I will leave it to those individuals to reveal that information and to utilize this interactive page if they should choose to do so.

Assassination: Idaho's Trial of the Century provides us with a dramatic view of the trial as it unfolded and explores some of the unanswered questions surrounding these events. Rather then being an end, the program is intended to be a catalyst for further exploration. We hope it will continue to stimulate research in our libraries and archives and result in new discoveries coming forth from faded family memories, dusty attics, the depths of old family trunks and yes, dirty dumpsters too.

Additional discoveries lie ahead . . . spurred on by the release of this historic program produced through the efforts of many but spearheaded by retired Idaho Supreme Court Justice Byron Johnson and Idaho Public Television. Each new finding expands our base of knowledge as we continue to wrestle with the who, what, where, when and why of this story. We invite you to participate and use this interactive page to share your own views and discoveries regarding these important events in not only the history of Idaho, but in the legal, political and industrial history in all of these United States of America.
