That man you got chained up
down there like an animal...
Stop!
What did he do?
If half the charges against these men are true,
they are the most scurrilous degenerate men in all of Missouri.
They say they're going to kill us before the hearing.
Treatin' us like animals.
I don't want you to get hurt in this.
But I'm not gonna let these men escape.
Just get them to court in Boone County and you're done with them.
My job is to keep the prisoners until justice can run its course.
You and I should not be getting ourselves killed for these men.
Are you still lookin' to escape?
It is our obligation to escape.
Let the system function as it is intended.
Are you well enough to make it to the brush?
I don't know.
We're not going to leave you behind.
You take one more step
you'll make a Missouri hero outta me.
We just need you to listen.
Please, Lord
Let this be right.
That's far enough.
Now!
They shot him!
They shot him!
They killed him!
O God, where art Thou?
I will not spend another night
in this wretched pit.
You want outta here,
you get out by the law.
For God and liberty.
God and liberty.
God and liberty.
