The first trial of John D. Lee was in the summer of 1875 and resulted in a hung jury. He was retried in 1876 and convicted of murder. The author's focus here is limited to the first trial, the forces leading to it, and the complex political, economic, and legal context in which it unfolded. The author will also present an overview of the 1875 trial itself and some of the issues and controversies surrounding it.
