RE: Why was Mary Surratt not photographed after her arrest?
Again, I am not certain as to whether the commission members had the option to deny their assignment. My guess would be no, unless there was found to be some kind of legal issue that would cause them to compromise the case. However, I also think that many of them felt duty bound to be the final avengers for Lincoln.
I don't remember Booth's body being exhumed in 1867. I thought the four others were exhumed and reburied in his storage space. I believe the reason for their removal was "re-landscaping" of the Arsenal grounds. |
