Lincoln county grand jury acts on Bogue Chitto terror
Judge Powell opens November term urging action against hoodlums who torched churches and schools and shot at residents in the Bogue Chitto area. Multiple defendants receive sentences for arson, assault, and murder in a sweeping Southwest Lincoln court session. Grand jury and court aims seek quiet, lawful life for citizens amid a crackdown on the gang led by John Albritton and the Brown brothers.
