His killer, William Sides, was shipped off for trial but mysteriously walked free, setting a brutal precedent. While Sides was en route, two others — ORiley and McLaughlin — seized Jessup’s claim, claiming the discovery of the Comstock and striking rich veins that same day. Jessup’s grave, near where the Crown Point mine would later rise, became part of Gold Hill’s history — his body wasn’t properly buried until 1861. This tale captures the lawless, high-stakes birth of a mining empire where justice was often a myth. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
