I knnew Cliff Park, wfe and Daughter When I was real little My Parents rented a house from Old Cliff. Everybody called the Old man back then. They were as nice and generous a family you could ever met. I remember John Brooks too. Him and Sheriff that replaced him Neil ward Had a bootlegging store in Pendergrass called Goatman's This wild hearing about Cliff like this he was a Pillar of our community

interesting! The April 1930 bank job and the Summit killings and the Thompson murders aren't mentioned in the 2002 Nickel & Helmer bio. Maybe they didn't believe the FBI reports?

A well research series. I know Phenix City was not your focus, but you tied it well into the series (perhaps you will do a series on Sin City). At the same time my grandparents moved from Atlanta to Auburn (next to Winder) in 1970 where spent our summers working on their farm. My grandmother wouldn't let us even look toward Winder unless she was with us. She knew what was going on there and did her best to protect us from it.

I am a huge fan of your channel, but I think that you are making connections between Billy the Kid and John Dillinger that, to me, don't exist. John was incredibly cruel, enjoyed inflicting pain and terror. Billy was pretty much firced into the outlaw life, became trapped in that role and finally accepted it.
@cwavt88495 күн бұрын
I love history, most especially American history. Of course, wild west history is st the top of my favorites. So, I have read, watched and listened to lots, LOTS of Billy the Kid history. This is, dar and away the best researched of anything that I have ever found. Before listening to Black Barrel Media, I thought that I Knew all there was to know about the outlaw. Thank you, not only for the outstanding research, but for narrating this standout account with a really good, real live Human. Your channel should have 100K subscribers. Hopefully, you will soon

It’s funny how the right always needs us to do research for them. Trump does love the uneducated.

The second amendment was to protect private citizens' rights to be able to bear arms protect themselves, their families and their properties from invaders- whether they are criminals and/ or a tyrannical government (just like our country is slowly being controlled by). Plus, it was to protect the citizens that form a well related militia- like a National Guard Unit, a Reserve Unit, a citizens' militia group or one of the private military contractors (Blackrock, Vanguard and other private corporate armies).

@@huffwayno To be honest I was there shortly after they changed the name of it to Inner Harbour Hospital. I was there a year 1989-90. Although all the evil people working there weren't there anymore some good staff members still were employed from the previous administration. Those staff members would say "you can run but Douglas County police(Earl Lee) was gonna bring you back." Most of the young men there were harmless although I do know one of them escaped and I think he killed someone in the local area. Our campsite was directly behind what is now Chapel Hill High school. We were in the woods behind the baseball field there at the high school. At the time I think that property was an old house or farm with an abandoned plant nursery. I once snuck away from the campsite and ran up to a small gas station/ convenience store on Chapel Hill Road to buy a pack of smokes. There's a good podcast somewhere on the internet about Anneewakkee Hospital. It covers its history and that evil man that started the place. Louis Poetter had government connections that protected his illicit activities. Many young men and boys were abused there but many had life changing experiences. I was never abused and my time there had an overall good impact on my life. Didn't know that Earl Lee lived so close by. That's interesting. To the best of my knowledge he also had it out for Louis Poetter.

I greatly enjoy these stories, especially the ones related to my beloved State of Georgia. I grew up in Pike county, about 70 miles south of Atlanta. Our local bank was robbed in the late 60's or early 70's when I was a pre teenager. It involved the kidnapping of the bank of Molena president and his family, who were well known to my family. I would like to learn more about this robbery, but have had little success in finding information regarding it. Can anyone direct me to where I might learn more details on this incident? Thanks in advance.
