Haywood was tried for the Dec. 30th, 1905 assassination of Idaho's former governor Frank R. Steunenberg.

The case of the State of Idaho vs. William D. Haywood, et al. was tried in the Court of Canyon County, 7th Judicial District of Idaho, May 9th-July 29th 1907 with Clarence Darrow as attorney for the defense and William E.
