Produktbeschreibung

¿Murder Capital explores Prohibition-era Madison, Wisconsin. Per capita, Madison was the most violent and deadly city in the United States during the 1920s. Along with the usual suspects (bootleggers), Madison was unique in its strong Ku Klux Klan presence.

In effect, the Judge tied his own hands and the violence was allowed to continue unabated.
