TO 30 DAYS IN JAIL
Report from Denver is that James Kukules, former stool pigeon in Carl Jackson's enforcement department in Wyoming, was last Monday sentenced to serve 30 days in jail, following conviction of the charge of impersonating an officer. Kukules is one of the men who figured in the shooting scrape at Fossil about one year ago.
He left the Wyoming prohibition department last December, and in January went to Colorado, where, posing as a federal prohibition officer, secured an automobile at Trinidad, and borrowed money from another individual at Pueblo. Following this he disappeared.
He later showed up in Seattle, and when he applied to Carl Jackson for a job as prohibition officer, he was taken into custody and returned to Denver.
