JFK The Enduring SecretEpisode 266 Mac Wallace Part 3 The Kinser Murder And Wallace On TrialWe temporarily leave the Billie Sol Estes Mini-Series and pivot now to a Mini-Series on Mac Wallace.

But he was trailed by a legacy of underhanded dealings, from his “stolen” Senate election in 1948 to kickbacks he artfully concealed from deals engineered with Texas wheeler-dealer Billie Sol Estes and defense contractors like his longtime supporter Brown & Root.
