Wake Up With Jim

In an era when murderous gangsters such as Bonnie and Clyde dominated headlines almost daily, a particulary tragic incident on Saturday, January 2, 1932, stunned the nation. Until the horrors of September 11, 2001, in New York City, and Washington D.C., the incident now known as the Young Brothers Massacre held the record for the largest number of law enforcement officers killed in a single incident.

Today, except in Jim Hinckley's America, the tragic gunfight is largely a forgotten historic footnote. On this program America's storyteller author Jim Hinckley shares this story of murder and mystery. 

Today's program is sponsored in part by the iconic Wagon Wheel Motel in Cuba, Missouri, and RouteTrip USA, the bespoke travel specialists for a grand road trip holiday in the US or Canada.
