    • Quotes

      Mayberly: You all right?

      Leland Winters: Yeah. It was Gordon Kahl, son Yorie, Scott Faul, Wilbur Lundy, guy named Lester Tompkins, all members of the Posse. Kahl did the most damage.

      [angry]

      Leland Winters: He shot Bob Cheshire point blank. He executed him.

      Mayberly: You're sure it was Kahl?

      Leland Winters: Hell, yeah. I talked to him at the clinic after.

      Mayberly: [surprised] What?

      Leland Winters: The ambulance took us all to Doc Earns' clinic in Medina and there he was.

      Mayberly: All of you were there?

      Leland Winters: It's the closest doctor. Yorie was there and I guess Kahl came to see how he was.

      Mayberly: [disbelieving] What is it with this place? You guys shoot the hell out of each other and get together later for a beer? Why didn't you take him right there?

      Leland Winters: [angry] He was armed! Mister, he killed Bob Cheshire! Don't you think I would have gone for him if I could've?

      Mayberly: Where'd he go?

      Leland Winters: [angry] Out the door!

    Opinion of the movie In the line of Duty: Manhunt in the Dakotas
    It has been many years since I've seen the move In the Line of Duty: Manhunt in the Dakotas but It was poorly done. First off I live in the state that it happened. THe film was made in Georgia which isn't like North Dakota. I don't know how they could have shown a movie that was supposed to have taken place in North Dakota in the winter and not have shown snow. I remember there being snow on the ground at the time of the shooting. They made us North Dakotans with southern accents which, we born and raised North Dakotans, don't have. The film was very one sided. I didn't know Gordan Kahl personally but my grandfather did. Despite his faults and beliefs, Gordan had many friends.
