Henry Plummer is most commonly known as the "Outlaw Sheriff of Bannack." Testimonials of vigilantes and pro-vigilantes regarding Plummer have been accepted as historical fact and undisputed for decades. Great Falls historian Cheryl Wagner-Malecha presents a different scenario of the events that occurred in Bannack during 1863 and 1864, including a possible political conspiracy that led to the sheriff's lynching.
Wagner-Malecha offers an intriguing twist to the fascinating story of Plummer, providing attendees with the opportunity to rethink history by questioning who the criminal masterminds of Bannack really were.
