Vigilance Committees Shape California Justice 1849 56
In the absence of formal law California resorts to vigilante groups. The 1849 and 1856 committees punish criminals with draconian methods, purge corrupt officials, and restore order in San Francisco, later disbanding after establishing a new government. Willian T. Coleman and Capt. Wakeman led efforts. The era ends with heightened civic tension and promises of further chapters.
