A more in depth legal look takes place on the prosecution of Simeon Bushnell, an alleged participant in the rescue mission testimonies, and the verdict.

History enthusiast of the Oberlin Wellington Rescue will find this extraordinary event packed with legal insight. And finally, institutionalized racism, and a blatant disregard for the divine law by the judicial system in 19th century Cleveland, Ohio is uncovered.
