Assassination Trivia

[RJNorton]

Yes! Very good, Steve. You are correct although your reply is not why I asked the question. Just like there were stories that JWB got away, there was also a story that Michael O'Laughlen escaped from Ft. Jefferson and lived the rest of his life using the alias John Henry Stevenson. IMO, none of this is true, and I am positive that O'Laughlen died at Ft. Jefferson on September 23, 1867. Dr. Mudd tried to save him, but O'Laughlen died despite the doctor's efforts. I am 100% convinced JWB died at Garrett's farm and O'Laughlen died in the Dry Tortugas.

Here's the story where the photo I used came from:
