Rockwell Despite being very large in stature, he was very friendly and caring for his family and friends. He basically dedicated his life to the safety of his family and friends. As the LDS church was growing, it received lots of prosecution. Porter stood up against that prosecution.

Tried of Charges Because of his Fearlessness, he was tried with many charges. He was charged with the murder of Lilburn Boggs, the governor of Massachusetts. He was never proven guilty but still sent to prison for 9 months.

Being Released After being released from prison, Rockwell started to become a hunted man. People questioned his dedication to his beliefs and sought to charge him.

Outlaws Joseph once told Rockwell that if he never cut his hair, not a single bullet or blade would ever harm him. A Mob in Southern California heard about this. They piled their gold together and said the one to be able to arrive in Utah and kill Porter would win all of the gold. He was never touched by a single outlaw.

Rockwell In 1849 he was appointed deputy Marshall of Salt Lake City. He also served as a peace officer for the rest of his life. He died of old age in the summer of I look up to his dedication to what he believed in.
