The Botched Execution of Tom Ketchum

Ad-Free Safe House Edition

Episode 127 takes us back to the days of the Old West with the tale of “the Black Jack Gang,” terrors of the Southwest, from about 1896 to 1891 when its leader, Tom Ketchum, was finally captured trying to pull off a train robbery solo. He didn’t know the conductor had been robbed once before and carried a sawed-off shotgun. Yeah, that’s not gonna end well.
