À propos de ce contenu audio

Jack Maddox examines the dark history of vigilante justice in 1870s Los Angeles, where armed mobs operated parallel death courts alongside legal hangings. Using county records documenting 32 vigilance committee executions, the episode covers the sledgehammer storming of the LA County Jail and lynchings that targeted marginalized communities—revealing how frontier society normalized extrajudicial killings through carefully worded coroner's reports and mayoral endorsements.
