Before Butch Cassidy, there was Patrick Coughlin. Copy: It began with the theft of some strawberries from a street peddler in Park City, Utah Territory in 1895. By the time it was over, two lawmen were dead, and Patrick Coughlin was facing a firing squad. The young gunslinger, in a desperate bid to escape the punishment for his initial crime, caused one of the most thrilling manhunts in the state's history. The outlaw and his sidekick went on a crime spree, escalating from stealing horses to gunfights with the posse tailing them and ending in a shootout at a remote cabin. When Patrick Coughlin was finally recaptured and tried, he would become the first prisoner sentenced to death in the state. Join author and lawyer Brian Craig as he recounts the thrilling story of Patrick Coughlin, Utah's original desperado.
