Join us as we discuss Killers of the Flower Moon, a fascinating true story about the killing of numerous Osage Indians in an effort to obtain their wealth from oil deposits found on their land.

Fun fact:  This case could not be solved from local authorities or state authorities so the citizens demanded the government do something. President Coolidge appointed J Edgar Hoover to head up a task force to investigate the murders. This was the beginning of the FBI. Our great uncle Judge Frank Johnson was asked to take over as director of the FBI in 1977 by President Jimmy Carter. In the end he couldn’t take the position due to health issues.
