Conspiracy: The Killing of William Goebel (Abridged, Annotated)

Written from prison, where he served years for his conviction of being part of a conspiracy that assassinated Kentucky rival politician, William Goebel, this is Caleb Powers plea to clear his name. Sentenced to hang after three trials, he describes the horror of doing prison time for a crime in which he had no part.Powers also describes the incredibly toxic Kentucky politics that led to Goebel's death in 1900 and ensured his own conviction. These were the days of congressmen and senators going into chambers armed and full of venom.Conspiracies abounded on both sides and there is much in this story that will remind you of today's politics.
