Description

The first murder in Scotts Bluff County has a whole lot of intrigue besides George Arnold killing George Burton over a wage dispute. The murder occurred in Cheyenne County, but, by the time the trial began, the county had been split up into Scotts Bluff, Kimball, Banner, Deuel, and a much smaller Cheyenne counties. Was it really the first murder in Scotts Bluff County if it wasn't in the county yet? Lots of lawyering shenanigans ensue in this crazy little story from the North Platte Valley of Nebraska.
