In 1965, a white minister and father of four answered the call after Bloody Sunday — only to be ambushed on a dark Alabama street. Beaten by segregationists, denied lifesaving care, and left to die, his murder would end in acquittals and unanswered questions. Join John Conner as he dives deep into the dark to discuss the murder of James Reeb. Will this case be enough to make you check the locks?
