There are times I sit in the car to listen to more even after reaching my destination. I love this show and am learning fascinating things with every episode. How little we were taught in school about Lincoln’s assassination and his assassin. I appreciate this opportunity to learn about a piece of history that I thought I knew.
Knowing that Alec Baldwin killed a human being and got off scot free, I couldn’t listen to him any further. I kept thinking about the woman he killed, and the family she left behind.
