The Legendary Tom Horn

Tom Horn lived in that eventful period from the start of the Civil War through the turn of the century.  He was a lawman, an Indian scout, a Pinkerton, a cowboy and an outlaw.  He aided in the capture and surrender of Geronimo, rode with Teddy Roosevelt’s Rough Riders in the Spanish American War and worked for the Wyoming Stock Growers Association in range wars from 1894 to 1902.

Much controversy still remains as to whether he was guilty of the crime for which he was hung or if the Wyoming Stock Growers Association were afraid of what he knew about them that would cause them embarrassment with their associates and the public.

Check out the following and determine for yourselves what you think about Tom Horn’s innocence or guilt.
