POCATELLO — Martin Edmo Ish has been found guilty of voluntary manslaughter in the 2009 death of Eugene Lorne Red Elk. However, he was found not guilty of second-degree murder.

Ish, of Fort Hall, was arrested in June 2015 and charged with the beating death of Red Elk, a bouncer at Duffy’s Tavern in Pocatello.

The trial began April 18 at the Bannock County Courthouse. After eight days’ worth of witness testimony, extensive evidence and two days of deliberation, a Twin Falls-based jury determined there was enough evidence to find Ish guilty of voluntary manslaughter.
