In our Quarter 2 follow-up, Pat and Matt are joined once again by special guest Coby Treadway, the Education Coordinator at the Surratt House Tavern Museum in Clinton, Maryland! In Q2 we spent nearly 5 hours discussing the depths of the murder plots and assassination of President Abraham Lincoln at the conclusion of the American Civil War, and in this installment, we conclude our story with the aftermath of the assassination and manhunt. In this episode we cover the trial, sentencing, and executions of John Wilkes Booth's co-conspirators and the various legacies that endure to this very day!
