Was the Leo Frank Trial tainted by attitudes of bigotry against those who practice Judaism? This second installment by Watson retells the beginning of the trial of Leo Frank. Mary Phagan's mother, Newt Lee - night watchman and discoverer of the body, and Sargent Dobbs - one of the first on the scene, take the stand and relate the events of April 26 and 27 , 1913.

U.S. Congressman From Georgia, Tom Watson, analyzed the Leo Frank trial brief of evidence and published his work in his monthly Jeffersonian magazine in September 1915. Read by John de Nugent in 2015 for a centennial audiobook. Transformed into a montage in 2022.
