On January 21 and 22, 1974, petitioner Danny Gale Rachel and a codefendant, George Bishop Boggs, were tried for murder in the Letcher County, Kentucky Circuit Court.

On appeal, the Court of Appeals of Kentucky (now the Supreme Court of Kentucky) affirmed petitioner's conviction. Rachel v. Commonwealth of Kentucky, 523 S.W.2d 395 (1975).
