In January 1903, the small town of Enid, Oklahoma witnessed an astonishing revelation. A drifter known as David E. George lay dying in a hotel room, and with his last breaths, he declared himself as John Wilkes Booth, the infamous assassin of President Abraham Lincoln. Could this man truly be the fugitive Booth, believed to have been killed nearly four decades earlier?
In this episode of Legends May Live, we delve into the chilling confession and the evidence that both supports and contradicts George's claim. Discover how a supposed mummy, rumors, and historical inconsistencies have kept the debate alive for over a century, posing the question—did Booth manage to escape that fiery Virginia barn?
