Anniston, Alabama's 'Purification By Fire:' Six police officers killed over eight months, and a trial that led to a hanging
Episode 9
Tuesday, 18 August, 2020

Violence has always been an enemy of law enforcers in Anniston, Alabama, but in 1914-15 that truth reached new heights. Over an eight-month span, six Anniston Police Department officers were shot and killed in a spasm of violence directly related to bootlegging and illegal saloons in the city. Twice Anniston had two police officers shot and killed on the same day. One of its police chiefs was murdered by a bootlegger. And one of the subsequent trials produced a swift verdict and a delayed execution that Annistonians watched against the sheriff's wishes.
