Thank you to Amy M for requesting this episode!
A rich and powerful man who thought he was above the law and a brave sheriff who refused to back down.
This is the story of how one murder brought a corrupt "king" and his reign of terror crashing down.
Join Jen & Cam as we explore the 1948 case that made history in the American South, "Fall of a Kingdom: Coweta County Murder"
