Not sure if you have seen this or not, but it is interesting reading. Not sure if this helps or not though. Taylor Driskell--Outlaw ID: I544989974 Name: TAYLOR DRISKEL Given Name: TAYLOR Surname: DRISKEL Sex: M Birth: 27 Aug 1822 Death: Deceased Change Date: 16 Mar 2003 Note: Member of the Driskel/Brody Gang. See notes under Johnson Driskel, father. Taylor along with his brother David actually carried out the murder of John Campbell, leader of the Regulators June 29th, 1841. Paragraph out of "Creston History" book: Taylor Driscoll was arrested some years later. Indicted by the Ogle County grand jury for the murder of John Campbell, and took a change of venue toMcHenry County where he was tried and acquitted on a second trial. On the first trial the jury disagreed, and on the second the court permitted the defendant's counsel wide latitude in cross-questioning witnesses, especially Mrs. Campbell, the widow of the murdered man, who was quite nervous, and they worried her into statements that were detrimental to the prosecution, and Driscoll was therefore acquitted. That he was guilty there could be but little doubt.
