Daren Christopher Abbey, 41, appeared in District Court on November 26, 2024, in Bozeman, Montana, where he pleaded not guilty to the murder of Dustin Kjersem, claiming self-defense. The case initially was reported as a bear attack but investigators uncovered evidence suggesting a different story.

Daren Christopher Abbey, 41, appears in District Court on Tuesday, Nov. 26, 2024, in Bozeman, Mont. BOZEMAN, Mont. — A self-described white supremacist charged with killing a man in a tent in southwestern Montana has pleaded not guilty to deliberate homicide and claims self-defense, while investigators say there are inconsistencies in the defendant’s story.

Investigators found shot glasses and beer cans in the tent that suggested someone else had been with Kjersem on Oct. 10. DNA tests on a beer can matched two people in the state’s criminal database, Daren Abbey and someone believed to be Abbey’s twin brother, court records say. The brother was ruled out because he was serving a prison sentence.

Abbey said he did not report the fight because he had a felony record. He acknowledged taking a cooler of beer and guns from the crime scene and then returning the next day to look for a beanie he believed he might have left there. He told investigators he also took two cellphones and items out of Kjersem’s truck, charging documents say.
