WALLACE, Idaho — For nine decades, the case of a missing game warden during the Depression in Shoshone County remained unsolved.
When the Idaho Department of Fish and Game began the process of adding Ellsworth Arthur Teed to state and national lists of fallen officers, it wound up drawing attention and new information from the public.
That new information was enough to reopen the case and after a year, Capt. Seth Green of Shoshone County Sheriff’s Office said, the case is concluded with a suspect named.
“There was a huge manhunt back in 1934, one of the largest of its time. We have a huge host of cold cases, but it needs something extra to look into something where all of the suspects and everyone’s dead,” Green said.
