Life in prison wasn’t enough for the Knights of Mary Phagan. They wanted Leo Frank to pay with his life, and they were going to make sure it happened. In Georgia, vigilante justice wasn’t new, but this time was different. This time, it would change the nation. Would the vigilantes actually get away with it?

Join us for the final episode in this seven-episode series, The Vigilantes.

Special thanks to former Georgia Governor Roy Barnes for his time and contribution to this episode.
