Huey P. Long

[Daniel Meyer]

A leader dies from gunfire.

Shot by a lone assailant who soon after himself is shot to death, leaving his motive, if any, mysterious?

Or was the leader shot by his own subordinates who then covered up the actual circumstances?

Or was there an even wider conspiracy?

75 years ago, Louisiana Senator Huey P. Long was shot in the Louisiana State Capital building in Baton Rouge.
