The Flimsy Case Against Mary Surratt

[wpbinzel]

Well, someone seems a little fuzzy on what constitutes "clear evidence" versus "my opinion" . . . .

Mike G., please cite just ONE source that corroborates any aspect of Bates' account of events in the Telegraph Office on the morning of April 14, 1865 that was written prior to 1907. You won't because you can't. Bates' fanciful recollection, first revealed 42 years after the fact, is demonstrably -- to use current terminology -- fake news. There is no evidence that Lincoln was even in the Telegraph Office that morning, muchless had a conversation about or with Thomas Eckert.
