In this episode of Compact Murder, we look at the assassination of James A. Garfield, the 20th President of the United States. What began as a political grievance in the mind of Charles Guiteau became one of the most shocking crimes in American history, followed by weeks of suffering, mounting public anxiety, and a national reckoning over patronage, politics, and presidential security.
