ASHLEY!
18
00:00:44,100 --> 00:00:45,400

HELLO, JOHN.
20
00:00:46,667 --> 00:00:48,597
Robert:
IT WAS TRULY A BLOOD FEUD.
21
00:00:49,933 --> 00:00:51,433
FRED!
22
00:00:51,433 --> 00:00:53,573
Crowder: "ENOUGH IS ENOUGH.
23
00:00:53,567 --> 00:00:55,627

00:01:32,967 --> 00:01:34,397
POPE!
32
00:01:34,400 --> 00:01:35,730
POPE, THERE'S NO WAY
OUT OF HERE.
33
00:01:35,733 --> 00:01:38,173
BOB BAKER IS CHARGED
WITH ENFORCING THE LAW
34
00:01:38,167 --> 00:01:43,367
IN ONE OF THE MOST DIVERSE,
DANGEROUS COUNTIES IN AMERICA.
35
00:01:43,367 --> 00:01:45,167
Robert:
TO ME, THEY'RE NOT LAWMEN.
36
00:01:45,167 --> 00:01:47,367
THEY'RE -- THEY'RE MY KIN.
THEY'RE MY RELATIVES.
37
00:01:47,367 --> 00:01:49,067
UH, THOSE GUYS
WERE ALL TOUGH GUYS.
38
00:01:49,067 --> 00:01:52,367
THEY -- THEY JUST WERE.
THEY -- THEY HAD TO BE.
39
00:01:52,367 --> 00:01:55,727
Luckhardt: HE WAS TOLD TO GET
THIS FELLOW, BORIS POPE,
40
00:01:55,733 --> 00:01:57,103
AND, UH, ARREST HIM.
41
00:01:57,100 --> 00:02:02,370
WELL, HE FOUND THEM
RESISTING ARREST.
42
00:02:02,367 --> 00:02:05,067
BOB BAKER HAD TO BE ONE
OF THE BRAVEST FIGURES
43
00:02:05,067 --> 00:02:07,367
THAT WE CAN IMAGINE, UH,
DURING THE TIME.
44
00:02:07,367 --> 00:02:09,327
THERE WERE SIMPLY
NO GREATER, UH,
45
00:02:09,333 --> 00:02:11,473
OBSTACLES FOR
A LAW-ENFORCEMENT OFFICER
46
00:02:11,467 --> 00:02:14,467
TO FACE THAN WHAT BOB BAKER
HAD TO FACE IN -- IN,
47
00:02:14,467 --> 00:02:16,267
UH, PALM BEACH COUNTY, FLORIDA.
48
00:02:17,567 --> 00:02:19,827
SOUTH FLORIDA --
THE LAST FRONTIER,
49
00:02:19,833 --> 00:02:22,503
A PLACE THAT'S STILL
VERY SPARSELY POPULATED.
50
00:02:28,267 --> 00:02:31,327
BOB BAKER REPRESENTED LAW
AND ORDER IN A COMMUNITY
51
00:02:31,333 --> 00:02:34,933
THAT WAS STARTING TO DEVELOP
ITS OWN IDENTITY,
52
00:02:34,933 --> 00:02:36,503
THAT WAS STARTING TO GROW.
53
00:02:48,100 --> 00:02:52,500
BOB WAS A STOCKY, STOUT,
54
00:02:52,500 --> 00:02:56,600
LITTLE GUY THAT LOOKS
LIKE HE'D BUST YOU IN THE MOUTH
55
00:02:56,600 --> 00:02:58,800
FOR LOOKING AT HIM CROSS-EYED.
56
00:03:01,533 --> 00:03:06,103
WHEN HE SPOKE, YOU BETTER
BY GOD PAY ATTENTION.
57
00:03:06,100 --> 00:03:08,230
Bob: POPE!
58
00:03:08,233 --> 00:03:12,733
BELIEVE THIS IS WHAT THEY CALL
THE END OF THE LINE, POPE.
59
00:03:12,733 --> 00:03:15,333
IT WAS THE KIND OF EVENT THAT
EVERY LAW-ENFORCEMENT OFFICER
60
00:03:15,333 --> 00:03:18,133
AT THAT TIME FACED EVERY DAY.
61
00:03:18,133 --> 00:03:21,903
AND HE HAD TO ARREST
A VERY DANGEROUS PERSON.
62
00:03:23,900 --> 00:03:25,930
EASY NOW.
63
00:03:25,933 --> 00:03:29,603
JUST PUT THE GUN DOWN
AND COME ALONG QUIETLY.
64
00:03:29,600 --> 00:03:31,400
JUST PUT THE GUN DOWN.
65
00:03:54,567 --> 00:03:56,497
Luckhardt: BOB NEARLY DIED.
66
00:03:56,500 --> 00:03:58,500
THEY DO MANAGE
TO SAVE BOB'S LIFE.
67
00:03:58,500 --> 00:04:00,670
BUT HE DOES LOSE HIS LEG.
68
00:04:00,667 --> 00:04:03,697
SO HE IS NOW A DEPUTY SHERIFF
WITH ONE LEG.
69
00:04:17,067 --> 00:04:19,397
IT WOULD HAVE BEEN
A DANGEROUS TIME
70
00:04:19,400 --> 00:04:24,130
TO BE ANY POSITION
IN LAW ENFORCEMENT.
71
00:04:24,133 --> 00:04:27,073
Kleinberg: FLORIDA ALREADY
WAS ATTRACTING PEOPLE
72
00:04:27,067 --> 00:04:28,197
FROM ALL OVER THE WORLD
73
00:04:28,200 --> 00:04:29,670
WHO CAME DOWN HERE
74
00:04:29,667 --> 00:04:32,767
BECAUSE THEY COULD
GET AWAY WITH ANYTHING.
75
00:04:32,767 --> 00:04:34,327
Robert:
THAT'S WHAT WAS GOING ON HERE.
76
00:04:34,333 --> 00:04:36,933
IT WAS JUST --
JUST UNBELIEVABLE.
77
00:04:36,933 --> 00:04:39,273
SCARY TIME BACK THEN, MAN.
78
00:04:42,267 --> 00:04:44,797
IT WAS THE LAST PLACE SETTLED
IN THE EASTERN UNITED STATES.
79
00:04:44,800 --> 00:04:47,130
IT WAS STILL
VERY MUCH A FRONTIER.
80
00:04:47,133 --> 00:04:49,403
YOU HAVE ALL THESE PEOPLE
RUSHING DOWN THERE
81
00:04:49,400 --> 00:04:52,270
TO MAKE A QUICK BUCK.
82
00:04:52,267 --> 00:04:54,097
WITH ALL OF THAT GROWTH COMES
83
00:04:54,100 --> 00:04:58,270
A LOT OF OPPORTUNITY
FOR ILLEGAL ACTIVITY.
84
00:04:58,267 --> 00:05:02,567
Kleinberg: THIS WAS REALLY
A FIGHT FOR FLORIDA'S SOUL,
85
00:05:02,567 --> 00:05:04,597
CRIME VERSUS LAW AND ORDER.
86
00:05:04,600 --> 00:05:06,630
Robert: ALL THOSE BAKERS --
THOSE PEOPLE
87
00:05:06,633 --> 00:05:08,173
WERE JUST PILLARS
OF THE COMMUNITY.
88
00:05:08,167 --> 00:05:10,297
THAT KIND OF FOLKS THAT --
89
00:05:10,300 --> 00:05:14,400
THAT STEPPED UP THERE
AND TOOK CHARGE OF THINGS.
90
00:05:23,500 --> 00:05:26,230
BOB BAKER HAD
TO TRANSFER JOHN ASHLEY
91
00:05:26,233 --> 00:05:28,773
TO ONE OF THE JAIL CELLS,
THE FAMOUS JOHN ASHLEY,
92
00:05:28,767 --> 00:05:32,397
'CAUSE JOHN WAS FAMOUS
BY THIS TIME, TOO.
93
00:05:32,400 --> 00:05:34,300
Kleinberg:
VERY EARLY ON, AS A YOUNG ADULT,
94
00:05:34,300 --> 00:05:35,870
HE WAS CHARGED WITH THE MURDER
OF DESOTO TIGER,
95
00:05:35,867 --> 00:05:38,397
WHO WAS A -- A LOCAL SEMINOLE.
96
00:05:38,400 --> 00:05:40,830
WHILE ASHLEY WAS ON TRIAL,
HE WAS IN THE DADE COUNTY JAIL
97
00:05:40,833 --> 00:05:42,173
IN MIAMI.
98
00:05:42,167 --> 00:05:46,127
JOHN ASHLEY AND HIS GANG,
THEY WERE CRIMINALS.
99
00:05:53,667 --> 00:05:57,227
YOU'LL LIKE IT HERE.
FOOD'S NOT BAD.
100
00:05:57,233 --> 00:05:58,673
Ashley: THE ONLY FOOD
I EVER REALLY CARED ABOUT'S
101
00:05:58,667 --> 00:05:59,767
HOME COOKING.
102
00:05:59,767 --> 00:06:01,867
WELL, YOU SHOULD'VE
THOUGHT OF THAT
103
00:06:01,867 --> 00:06:03,767
BEFORE YOU KILLED
THAT SEMINOLE.
104
00:06:03,767 --> 00:06:05,797
IT WAS SELF-DEFENSE.
105
00:06:05,800 --> 00:06:07,570
SO YOU SAY.
106
00:06:11,533 --> 00:06:15,733
JOHN ASHLEY HAD THIS HUGE EGO
107
00:06:15,733 --> 00:06:20,073
AND WAS NOT GOING TO RESTRAIN
HIS PASSIONS, WHETHER --
108
00:06:20,067 --> 00:06:22,267
WHETHER IT WAS SPENDING MONEY
109
00:06:22,267 --> 00:06:25,467
OR GOING AFTER WOMEN OR,
110
00:06:25,467 --> 00:06:27,697
UH, ANY OF THE OTHER KINDS
OF ACTIVITIES
111
00:06:27,700 --> 00:06:29,470
THAT HE WAS INVOLVED IN.
112
00:06:32,400 --> 00:06:34,700
BUT HE WAS A WILY GUY.
HE WAS -- HE WAS A SMART GUY.
113
00:06:34,700 --> 00:06:37,330
WHAT HAPPENED
TO YOUR LEG?
114
00:06:37,333 --> 00:06:40,533
GOT SHOT OFF.
115
00:06:40,533 --> 00:06:42,173
WHAT'S KEEPING YOU
UPRIGHT?
116
00:06:42,167 --> 00:06:44,497
SOME PIECE OF LUMBER.
117
00:06:48,400 --> 00:06:49,700
ASHLEY!
118
00:06:49,700 --> 00:06:52,070
[ GUNSHOTS ]
119
00:06:52,067 --> 00:06:54,097
COME BACK HERE!
120
00:06:54,100 --> 00:06:55,900
ASHLEY!
121
00:06:59,600 --> 00:07:02,500
DAMN IT.
122
00:07:02,500 --> 00:07:03,630
Luckhardt:
WELL, HERE'S THE DEPUTY.
123
00:07:03,633 --> 00:07:05,703
YOU KNOW, HIS FATHER'S
THE SHERIFF,
124
00:07:05,700 --> 00:07:08,070
AND HE LOSES THE CRIMINAL.
125
00:07:08,067 --> 00:07:12,567
THE WHOLE IDEA OF A CRIMINAL
OUTWITTING HIM HE DOESN'T LIKE.
126
00:07:14,333 --> 00:07:15,973
Crowder:
LAW-ENFORCEMENT OFFICERS,
127
00:07:15,967 --> 00:07:18,297
WHEN THEY MAKE A MISTAKE
OR SOMEBODY OUTSMARTS THEM,
128
00:07:18,300 --> 00:07:21,670
IT'S A CONFRONTATION
TO YOUR MANHOOD OR SOMETHING.
129
00:07:29,700 --> 00:07:31,330
JOHN ASHLEY COULD HIDE,
130
00:07:31,333 --> 00:07:34,303
AND HIS CREW AND HIS GANG,
IN THE EVERGLADES.
131
00:07:34,300 --> 00:07:36,500
AND NO ONE COULD FIND 'EM.
132
00:07:38,967 --> 00:07:43,067
Robert: THE ASHLEYS WERE
ABSOLUTELY SWAMP FOLK,
133
00:07:43,067 --> 00:07:44,567
COUNTRY FOLK.
134
00:07:44,567 --> 00:07:46,327
THAT'S SOME HARD LIVING.
135
00:07:54,067 --> 00:07:56,067
Crowder: WHEN HE GETS INTO
ALL THAT TROUBLE, HE DECIDES,
136
00:07:56,067 --> 00:07:58,397
"WELL, I MAY AS WELL GO
FOR THE WHOLE APPLE,
137
00:07:58,400 --> 00:08:01,070
SO TO SPEAK."
138
00:08:01,067 --> 00:08:02,797
THEY WOULD ROB THE LOCAL BANK
139
00:08:02,800 --> 00:08:07,130
AND, UH, FORCE SOMEONE TO DRIVE
THE GETAWAY CAR FOR THEM.
140
00:08:12,967 --> 00:08:15,127
Luckhardt: ONE OF THE GANGSTERS
IN THE GANG...
141
00:08:17,067 --> 00:08:18,427
THE BULLET,
AS HE'S SHOOTING BACK,
142
00:08:18,433 --> 00:08:22,303
RICOCHETS OFF AN INSIDE DOOR,
143
00:08:22,300 --> 00:08:24,430
GOES BACK, HITS JOHN ASHLEY
144
00:08:24,433 --> 00:08:25,803
IN THE LOWER PART
OF THE JAW,
145
00:08:25,800 --> 00:08:28,970
GOES THROUGH AND COMES OUT
BY THE RIGHT EYE.
146
00:08:35,367 --> 00:08:40,467
Crowder: THEY TOOK HIM OUT
TO A SWAMPY AREA,
147
00:08:40,467 --> 00:08:44,727
WHERE HE WAS BLEEDING
AND IN A LOT OF PAIN,
148
00:08:44,733 --> 00:08:47,833
LEFT HIM THERE TO HIDE.
149
00:08:47,833 --> 00:08:50,233
BUT, UH, SHERIFF BAKER, UH,
150
00:08:50,233 --> 00:08:53,973
FOLLOWED THEM AT A DISTANCE
AND CLANDESTINELY
151
00:08:53,967 --> 00:08:57,197
SO AS TO NOT LET
THEM KNOW HE WAS FOLLOWING.
152
00:09:02,733 --> 00:09:04,503
BACK UP.
153
00:09:11,467 --> 00:09:14,767
NOW, WHAT HAPPENED TO YOUR EYE?
154
00:09:19,067 --> 00:09:21,697
Kleinberg: HE WAS CONVICTED
AND WENT TO RAIFORD PRISON.
155
00:09:21,700 --> 00:09:24,730
Crowder: THEY REMOVED
HIS, UH, DESTROYED EYE
156
00:09:24,733 --> 00:09:26,633
AND REPLACED IT
WITH A GLASS EYE,
157
00:09:26,633 --> 00:09:30,803
WHICH, UH, SOMETIMES ASHLEY
WORE, SOMETIMES NOT.
158
00:09:34,900 --> 00:09:36,970
WITHIN A COUPLE OF YEARS,
HE'S NOW ALLOWED TO WORK
159
00:09:36,967 --> 00:09:40,597
ON A ROAD GANG.
160
00:09:40,600 --> 00:09:44,630
STATE OF FLORIDA WOULD ACTUALLY
LEASE PRISONERS TO COMPANIES
161
00:09:44,633 --> 00:09:46,773
FOR ROAD-BUILDING PURPOSES.
162
00:09:46,767 --> 00:09:49,367
HE BEHAVED HIMSELF IN PRISON
TO THE EXTENT
163
00:09:49,367 --> 00:09:51,897
THAT THEY WERE PRETTY CONFIDENT
THAT HE WAS --
164
00:09:51,900 --> 00:09:53,900
HE WAS GONNA SERVE OUT HIS TIME.
165
00:10:21,467 --> 00:10:24,727
PALM BEACH COUNTY
SHERIFF'S DEPARTMENT.
166
00:10:24,733 --> 00:10:27,903
UH-HUH.
YES, YES.
167
00:10:27,900 --> 00:10:30,870
WELL, I THINK IT'S SAFE
TO ASSUME
168
00:10:30,867 --> 00:10:32,697
THAT HE'S HEARD
OF ASHLEY'S ESCAPE.
169
00:10:32,700 --> 00:10:35,670
THAT IS A PERSONAL FEUD,
DEFINITELY.
170
00:10:37,933 --> 00:10:41,533
TWO FAMILIES, THE BAKER FAMILY
AND THE ASHLEY FAMILY...
171
00:10:41,533 --> 00:10:43,003
ONE SAYS, "HEY.
172
00:10:43,000 --> 00:10:45,700
YOU KNOW, WE'RE GONNA
GET YOU, NO MATTER WHAT."
173
00:10:45,700 --> 00:10:47,070
AND THE OTHER ONE SAYS, "NO.
174
00:10:47,067 --> 00:10:49,667
I'M GONNA MAKE A FOOL
OUT OF YOU EVERY CHANCE I GET."
175
00:10:49,667 --> 00:10:51,697
THAT WAS ONE OF THE THINGS
MY OWN DAD
176
00:10:51,700 --> 00:10:53,170
TAUGHT ME ABOUT BEING A MAN,
177
00:10:53,167 --> 00:10:55,467
IS DO WHAT YOU SAY
YOU'RE GONNA DO BECAUSE,
178
00:10:55,467 --> 00:10:58,097
IF YOU DON'T,
SOMEBODY'S GONNA CALL YOU ON IT.
179
00:10:58,100 --> 00:11:00,700
Luckhardt: THE BAKERS
HAD A WHOLE BIG COUNTY
180
00:11:00,700 --> 00:11:01,970
TO HAVE TO LOOK AFTER.
181
00:11:01,967 --> 00:11:05,697
BUT THEIR NUMBER-ONE TARGET
NEVER CHANGED.
182
00:11:05,700 --> 00:11:07,830
IT WAS ALWAYS NOT
JUST THE ASHLEY GANG.
183
00:11:07,833 --> 00:11:09,473
IT WAS JOHN ASHLEY.
184
00:11:36,767 --> 00:11:38,727
Kleinberg: THE BAKERS
REPRESENTED LAW AND ORDER.
185
00:11:38,733 --> 00:11:41,803
THE ASHLEYS
REPRESENTED BASICALLY ANARCHY.
186
00:11:41,800 --> 00:11:44,200
Luckhardt: THIS GANG
WAS CAUSING SO MUCH HAVOC
187
00:11:44,200 --> 00:11:45,370
UP AND DOWN THE COAST,
188
00:11:45,367 --> 00:11:46,967
PEOPLE WERE AFRAID.
189
00:11:46,967 --> 00:11:50,597
AND THAT'S WHY THIS IS ONE GROUP
THEY'RE GONNA HAVE TO CHASE.
190
00:11:50,600 --> 00:11:52,730
Kleinberg: THIS WASN'T JUST A --
A RUNNING FEUD.
191
00:11:52,733 --> 00:11:56,703
IT WAS A MULTIGENERATIONAL FEUD.
192
00:11:56,700 --> 00:11:59,870
Crowder:
GEORGE BAKER DIED OUT IN 1920.
193
00:11:59,867 --> 00:12:03,627
AND THE GOVERNOR APPOINTED
BOB BAKER TO ASSUME THE JOB
194
00:12:03,633 --> 00:12:05,473
OF SHERIFF OF PALM BEACH COUNTY.
195
00:12:05,467 --> 00:12:09,127
HE WANTED TO, UH,
I GUESS AS A, UM,
196
00:12:09,133 --> 00:12:11,603
A PROMISE TO HIS DAD,
197
00:12:11,600 --> 00:12:14,470
PUT AN END TO THIS PROBLEM
WITH THE ASHLEY GANG.
198
00:12:27,233 --> 00:12:29,103
Bob: THIS IS A RAID!
199
00:12:29,100 --> 00:12:32,130
LET'S SEE THOSE HANDS.
200
00:12:32,133 --> 00:12:34,073
Luckhardt: THE BEGINNING
OF THE 1920s,
201
00:12:34,067 --> 00:12:36,067
THE ROARING TWENTIES,
THE UNITED STATES
202
00:12:36,067 --> 00:12:37,927
HAD JUST COME
OUT OF WORLD WAR I.
203
00:12:37,933 --> 00:12:39,703
THINGS WERE REALLY CHANGING.
204
00:12:39,700 --> 00:12:42,270
AND ONE OF THE BIG CHANGES,
OF COURSE, WAS PROHIBITION --
205
00:12:42,267 --> 00:12:44,467
NO MORE LIQUOR.
206
00:12:44,467 --> 00:12:46,927
COULDN'T SELL IT,
BUY IT, TRANSPORT IT.
207
00:12:46,933 --> 00:12:49,533
AND THAT'S WHERE THE MONEY
WAS TO BE MADE.
208
00:12:49,533 --> 00:12:51,303
GET AN AX.
209
00:13:08,200 --> 00:13:10,730
JOHN ASHLEY AND HIS GANG,
THEY HAD THEIR OWN STILLS.
210
00:13:10,733 --> 00:13:12,633
THEY WERE SELLING IT UP NORTH.
211
00:13:12,633 --> 00:13:14,633
THEY HAD A BIG BUSINESS.
212
00:13:16,900 --> 00:13:17,970
LET'S DUMP IT.
213
00:13:17,967 --> 00:13:19,597
THE SHERIFF'S
LIKE EASTERN AIRLINES.
214
00:13:19,600 --> 00:13:21,600
HE'S GOT TO -- HE'S GOT TO
EARN HIS WINGS EVERY DAY
215
00:13:21,600 --> 00:13:24,470
IF HE WANTS TO STAY IN OFFICE.
216
00:13:24,467 --> 00:13:26,967
Denham: BEING SHERIFF IN THE
TURN OF THE CENTURY IN FLORIDA
217
00:13:26,967 --> 00:13:30,397
WAS A PUBLIC JOB,
AND IT WAS A POLITICAL JOB.
218
00:13:30,400 --> 00:13:31,770
SHERIFFS ARE ELECTED.
219
00:13:31,767 --> 00:13:33,767
THEY RUN FOR ELECTION
EVERY FOUR YEARS.
220
00:13:33,767 --> 00:13:35,827
GET THESE GUYS OUT OF HERE.
221
00:13:43,067 --> 00:13:46,327
THERE WAS A KIND OF A --
UH, A WAR ON TWO FRONTS.
222
00:13:46,333 --> 00:13:48,703
THE FIRST FRONT WAS
ON THE MOONSHINE STILLS.
223
00:13:48,700 --> 00:13:51,470
BUT THE OTHER FRONT
WAS KIND OF THE BAHAMAS,
224
00:13:51,467 --> 00:13:54,567
69 MILES FROM HERE TO BIMINI.
225
00:13:54,567 --> 00:13:57,827
AND THE ASHLEYS WERE INVOLVED
IN BOTH SIDES OF THAT.
226
00:14:00,167 --> 00:14:02,427
NOT ONLY
WERE THEY PRODUCING MOONSHINE.
227
00:14:02,433 --> 00:14:04,273
THEY'D ACTUALLY STEAL THE BOATS.
228
00:14:04,267 --> 00:14:07,297
THEY WOULD GO AND --
AND RUN LIQUOR FROM BIMINI.
229
00:14:07,300 --> 00:14:08,730
AND THIS WAS
OF COURSE GOOD LIQUOR.
230
00:14:08,733 --> 00:14:10,103
THIS WAS NOT MOONSHINE.
231
00:14:10,100 --> 00:14:14,570
SO THIS WAS LOTS
AND LOTS OF CASH.
232
00:14:14,567 --> 00:14:16,497
50 MILES OF COASTLINE,
233
00:14:16,500 --> 00:14:18,200
A VERY SMALL
POLICE DEPARTMENT...
234
00:14:18,200 --> 00:14:20,870
FAST BOAT CAN GET THERE
IN A FEW HOURS,
235
00:14:20,867 --> 00:14:22,967
WHICH MADE IT VERY EASY.
236
00:14:22,967 --> 00:14:25,067
YOU COULD, UH, RUN
OVER TO THE BAHAMAS,
237
00:14:25,067 --> 00:14:28,327
MAKE YOUR PICKUP,
GET BACK IN THE DEAD OF NIGHT
238
00:14:28,333 --> 00:14:31,633
AND STILL GET
A DECENT NIGHT'S SLEEP.
239
00:14:31,633 --> 00:14:34,473
IF YOU WERE THE LOCAL SHERIFF
AT THE TIME,
240
00:14:34,467 --> 00:14:37,097
TRYING TO STOP PROHIBITION
241
00:14:37,100 --> 00:14:39,700
WAS LIKE TRYING
TO STOP THE WAVES OF THE OCEAN.
242
00:14:56,067 --> 00:14:58,267
Ashley: PUT THAT BIG ONE
IN THERE FIRST.
243
00:15:13,733 --> 00:15:16,833
YOU GONNA SHOOT ME?
YOU GONNA HELP ME LOAD THE CAR?
244
00:15:16,833 --> 00:15:19,703
SHOOT YOU.
245
00:15:19,700 --> 00:15:21,730
Luckhardt: LAURA UPTHEGROVE
CAME INTO THE STORY
246
00:15:21,733 --> 00:15:23,573
AROUND FEBRUARY 1920.
247
00:15:23,567 --> 00:15:25,427
BEFORE THAT, SHE WAS
A MARRIED WOMAN
248
00:15:25,433 --> 00:15:27,833
WITH THREE CHILDREN
LIVING ON THE EAST SIDE
249
00:15:27,833 --> 00:15:29,273
OF LAKE OKEECHOBEE.
250
00:15:29,267 --> 00:15:31,697
BUT SHE SAID TO HER HUSBAND
ONE DAY, "I'M OUT OF HERE.
251
00:15:31,700 --> 00:15:34,530
I'M TIRED OF BEING A WIFE.
I'M JOINING THE ASHLEY GANG."
252
00:15:34,533 --> 00:15:37,333
SO SHE GOES OVER TO THE AREA
OF WHAT WE CALL PECKS LAKE,
253
00:15:37,333 --> 00:15:42,073
WHERE THE ASHLEY GANG DID HAVE
ONE OF THEIR CAMPS THERE.
254
00:15:42,067 --> 00:15:44,097
AND SHE SAYS,
"I WANT TO JOIN THE GANG."
255
00:15:44,100 --> 00:15:45,430
MM.
256
00:15:49,200 --> 00:15:51,230
YOU SHOULD'VE SHOT ME.
257
00:15:51,233 --> 00:15:53,073
NEXT TIME.
258
00:15:56,467 --> 00:15:59,067
MS. UPTHEGROVE
VERY MUCH WAS A --
259
00:15:59,067 --> 00:16:00,867
A WILD INDIVIDUAL.
260
00:16:00,867 --> 00:16:04,527
SHE ENJOYED THE WILD LIFE.
261
00:16:04,533 --> 00:16:07,333
SHOULDN'T BE LONG.
262
00:16:07,333 --> 00:16:09,233
SOLD TO THIS GUY
BEFORE.
263
00:16:09,233 --> 00:16:11,833
SHOULD BE BACK BY SUNRISE.
264
00:16:11,833 --> 00:16:13,273
AFTER NOT TOO LONG,
265
00:16:13,267 --> 00:16:16,267
JOHN WAS KNOWN AS THE KING
OF THE EVERGLADES,
266
00:16:16,267 --> 00:16:19,067
AND, UH, LAURA WAS KNOWN
267
00:16:19,067 --> 00:16:22,927
AS THE QUEEN
OF THE EVERGLADES.
268
00:16:22,933 --> 00:16:25,073
SHE, UH, DEFINITELY
WAS NOT SOMEBODY
269
00:16:25,067 --> 00:16:27,827

MAN OR A WOMAN,

WOULD WANT TO GET
INTO A -- A BRAWL WITH.
271
00:16:31,133 --> 00:16:33,073
SHE WAS RIGHT IN
THE MIDDLE OF ALL OF IT.

00:16:33,067 --> 00:16:34,427
OH, YOU HAD BONNIE AND CLYDE.

JOHN ASHLEY'S MAKING A BIG HAUL
TO DEALERS UP THERE

00:16:55,533 --> 00:16:57,203
IN SEBRING,
NORTH OF LAKE OKEECHOBEE.
280
00:17:03,567 --> 00:17:08,167
JOHN ASHLEY'S FAMOUS,
SO PEOPLE RECOGNIZE HIM.
281
00:17:08,167 --> 00:17:10,527
AND THE POLICE ARE NOTIFIED.
282
00:17:20,167 --> 00:17:23,627
JOHN WAS
A VERY DANGEROUS PERSON.
283
00:17:42,100 --> 00:17:44,230
[ KNOCK ON CAR DOOR ]
284
00:17:44,233 --> 00:17:47,833
HELLO, JOHN.

286
00:17:50,400 --> 00:17:52,200
NOW, PUT DOWN THAT GUN.

TO THE REST OF THE GANG,

"I WANT THIS, THIS
AND THIS DONE."
289
00:18:17,500 --> 00:18:19,670
THERE WAS NEVER A QUESTION
WHO WAS THE LEADER OF THE GANG.
290
00:18:19,667 --> 00:18:22,497
IT WAS JOHN.

IT ALL TO MOBLEY.

ABOUT BEING

OF THE FAMILY BUSINESS.

00:18:40,367 --> 00:18:42,167
GOOD.
298
00:18:46,433 --> 00:18:49,533
HANFORD MOBLEY WAS
A NEPHEW OF ASHLEY AND --

AND WAS VERY INSTRUMENTAL
IN A LOT OF THE --

AND BOOTLEGGING ACTIVITY.

LOOKED UP TO HIS UNCLE.

HE REALLY ADMIRED HIM.
303

SO HE WAS WILLING TO DO
WHATEVER HIS UNCLE SAID.
304

IT WAS QUITE BRILLIANT...

THAT'S IT.
GET IT ALL IN THERE.
316
00:19:31,800 --> 00:19:33,300

ARRIVED, THEY SAID,

00:19:33,300 --> 00:19:35,070
"WHAT DID THE --
THE ROBBER LOOK LIKE?"
318
00:19:35,067 --> 00:19:36,727
AND THE TELLER SAID,
"I HAVE NO IDEA.
319
00:19:36,733 --> 00:19:38,733
I JUST REMEMBER THAT
HE WAS WEARING A DRESS."
320

IS HIS REAL ENEMY.

TO THE ASHLEYS, OF COURSE,

IN THE NEWSPAPERS CONSTANTLY.

THEY HAD TO PAY OFF.

LIKE THROWING A -- A --

A WAY TO ESCAPE.

THE TURNING POINT.

AND GET YOU THIS TIME."

OUT OF PRISON.

AGAIN, BOB BAKER,

STEAL FROM OTHER SMUGGLERS.

THEY WERE BOTH ALSO
GONNA SAY, "IT'S MY WAY."

ON HIM, I'M GONNA KILL HIM."

GONNA CATCH ASHLEY.

AS THE SHERIFF
OF PALM BEACH COUNTY.
513
00:36:41,900 --> 00:36:46,870
THIS COUNTY IS NOT JUST
OURS WHO LIVE HERE TODAY.
514
00:36:46,867 --> 00:36:49,597
IT'S OUR ANCESTORS
WHO RAISED THIS LAND.
515
00:36:49,600 --> 00:36:51,770
GET OUT OF THE CAR.
516
00:36:51,767 --> 00:36:53,067
IT'S OUR CHILDREN'S,
517
00:36:53,067 --> 00:36:55,167
WHO WILL INHERIT IT
WHEN WE'RE GONE.
518
00:37:04,133 --> 00:37:05,533
WHEN MY FATHER BECAME
519
00:37:05,533 --> 00:37:07,433
THE FIRST-EVER SHERIFF
OF PALM BEACH COUNTY,
520
00:37:07,433 --> 00:37:10,403
HE MADE A VOW TO PROTECT
THE GOLD COAST
521
00:37:10,400 --> 00:37:12,730
FROM THE CRIMINAL ELEMENT,
TO ENSURE
522
00:37:12,733 --> 00:37:17,373
THAT PALM BEACH COUNTY REMAINED
A PEACEFUL AND PROSPEROUS PLACE,
523
00:37:17,367 --> 00:37:19,067
TO KEEP OUR EVERGLADES
IN THE HANDS
524
00:37:19,067 --> 00:37:22,867
OF THE FAMILIES OF THIS LAND
AND NOT THE CRIMINALS
525
00:37:22,867 --> 00:37:25,367
WHO WOULD USE IT
AS THEIR PERSONAL HIDEAWAYS.
526
00:37:27,567 --> 00:37:29,067
Luckhardt:
THESE DEPUTIES HAD BEEN PART
527
00:37:29,067 --> 00:37:31,327
OF THE SAME POSSE GROUPS
OVER THE YEARS
528
00:37:31,333 --> 00:37:33,073
THAT HAD BEEN CHASING
THE ASHLEY GANG
529
00:37:33,067 --> 00:37:36,167
AND HAD ESCAPED
OUT OF DIFFERENT PRISONS.
530
00:37:36,167 --> 00:37:40,767
THE ASHLEY GANG KILLED 12
DIFFERENT PEOPLE OVER THE YEARS.
531
00:37:40,767 --> 00:37:42,627
THE REPUTATION THEY HAD
532
00:37:42,633 --> 00:37:44,833
AND THE PROPENSITY
THAT THEY HAD FOR VIOLENCE
533
00:37:44,833 --> 00:37:47,403
AND TRYING TO KILL
LAW-ENFORCEMENT OFFICERS,
534
00:37:47,400 --> 00:37:50,900
IT'S NOT GONNA TAKE MUCH TO GET
THOSE LAW-ENFORCEMENT OFFICERS
535
00:37:50,900 --> 00:37:52,530
TO USE WHAT THEY'VE GOT
536
00:37:52,533 --> 00:37:54,403
BECAUSE THEY WANT TO GO HOME
TO THEIR FAMILIES
537
00:37:54,400 --> 00:37:55,930
WHEN THE DAY ENDS.
538
00:37:55,933 --> 00:37:58,633
ALL RIGHT, BOYS.
IF THEY MOVE, SHOOT 'EM.
539
00:38:35,700 --> 00:38:37,570
[ GUNFIRE ]
540
00:38:44,067 --> 00:38:46,267
Bob: THAT IS WHY I HOPE
TO SERVE PALM BEACH COUNTY
541
00:38:46,267 --> 00:38:48,427
FOR MANY MORE YEARS TO COME.
542
00:38:48,433 --> 00:38:50,073
THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
543
00:38:50,067 --> 00:38:53,067
[ APPLAUSE ]
544
00:39:04,233 --> 00:39:06,303
Denham:
OBVIOUSLY, THE ASHLEY FAMILY
545
00:39:06,300 --> 00:39:08,370
IS CONVINCED THAT
THEY WERE SHOT IN COLD BLOOD.
546
00:39:08,367 --> 00:39:11,627
BOB BAKER'S SUPPORTERS
AND BOB BAKER'S DEPUTIES
547
00:39:11,633 --> 00:39:13,673
WERE CONVINCED
THAT THIS WAS JUST, UH,
548
00:39:13,667 --> 00:39:17,267
THE INEVITABLE RESULT OF AN --
OF AN ATTEMPT TO BREAK FREE
549
00:39:17,267 --> 00:39:19,667
OR BASICALLY FIRE BACK
AT THE DEPUTIES.
550
00:39:19,667 --> 00:39:22,697
SO THE DISPUTE CONTINUES.
551
00:39:30,500 --> 00:39:32,500
Robert:
I THINK PEOPLE UNDERSTAND
552
00:39:32,500 --> 00:39:34,530
THAT THEY HAD TO PUT AN END
TO THESE GUYS
553
00:39:34,533 --> 00:39:36,473
THAT WERE KILLING PEOPLE.
554
00:39:36,467 --> 00:39:37,627
THAT'S WHAT THEY DID.
555
00:39:37,633 --> 00:39:39,673
THEY WERE OUTLAWS, MAN.
THEY WERE OUTLAWS.
556
00:39:39,667 --> 00:39:42,267
AND THE LAWMEN PREVAILED,
YOU KNOW?
557
00:39:42,267 --> 00:39:45,067
"I AM A LAWMAN,
AND MY WILL SHALL PREVAIL."
558
00:39:50,067 --> 00:39:52,497
I THINK THEY FINALLY GOT
TO THE POINT WITH, UH,
559
00:39:52,500 --> 00:39:54,170
THE ASHLEY GANG
THAT IT WAS LIKE,
560
00:39:54,167 --> 00:39:55,927
"ENOUGH IS ENOUGH.
561
00:39:55,933 --> 00:39:57,673
EITHER THEY'RE GONNA KILL
SOMEBODY ELSE,
562
00:39:57,667 --> 00:39:59,627
OR WE'RE GONNA TAKE
THESE GUYS OUT."
563
00:39:59,633 --> 00:40:01,873
AND, UH, THEY HAD
THE OPPORTUNITY,
564
00:40:01,867 --> 00:40:04,597
AND THEY DID.
565
00:40:04,600 --> 00:40:07,300
Luckhardt: SHERIFF BOB BAKER
KEPT LAW AND ORDER
566
00:40:07,300 --> 00:40:08,870
WHEN OTHER SHERIFFS
IN OTHER COMMUNITIES
567
00:40:08,867 --> 00:40:11,197
DIDN'T DO SO WELL, ESPECIALLY
DURING PROHIBITION ERA
568
00:40:11,200 --> 00:40:13,100
OF THE 1920s.
569
00:40:13,100 --> 00:40:17,470
BUT PROBABLY SHERIFF BAKER'S
MAIN OBJECTIVE
570
00:40:17,467 --> 00:40:19,227
FOR MOST OF HIS CAREER
571
00:40:19,233 --> 00:40:22,473
WAS TO GET JOHN ASHLEY.
572
00:40:22,467 --> 00:40:24,227
AND HE DID.
573
00:40:35,133 --> 00:40:38,903
THE NEXT MORNING, WORD
HAD SPREAD UP AND DOWN THE COAST
574
00:40:38,900 --> 00:40:41,670
THAT THE ASHLEY GANG WAS DONE,
TOTALLY WIPED OUT.
575
00:40:41,667 --> 00:40:43,727
NOBODY BELIEVED IT 'CAUSE
THEY KNEW ALREADY
576
00:40:43,733 --> 00:40:45,773
THE GANG HAD ESCAPED
OUT OF EVERYTHING,
577
00:40:45,767 --> 00:40:48,667
WHETHER IT WAS A RAID
ON THE FAMILY CAMP OR A JAIL.
578
00:40:48,667 --> 00:40:50,697
SO THE MORTUARY, UH, PEOPLE
579
00:40:50,700 --> 00:40:52,030
LAY OUT THE FOUR BODIES
580
00:40:52,033 --> 00:40:54,133
RIGHT IN FRONT OF THEIR MORTUARY
581
00:40:54,133 --> 00:40:55,403
ON THE SIDEWALK
582
00:40:55,400 --> 00:40:58,670
FOR THE PUBLIC TO VIEW
ALL DAY THE NEXT DAY.
583
00:40:58,667 --> 00:41:01,527
THEY KNEW JOHN ASHLEY
WAS GONE NOW.
584
00:41:04,667 --> 00:41:06,067
THERE WERE A LOT OF PEOPLE
THAT DIDN'T GRIEVE
585
00:41:06,067 --> 00:41:08,167
FOR THE ASHLEYS,
THAT -- THAT SAID,
586
00:41:08,167 --> 00:41:11,067
"EVEN IF --
EVEN IF THEY WERE EXECUTED,
587
00:41:11,067 --> 00:41:12,867
THEY HAD IT COMING."
588
00:41:31,933 --> 00:41:35,073
IT'S IMPORTANT TO REMEMBER
THAT HE WAS A GANGSTER
589
00:41:35,067 --> 00:41:37,727
AND A THIEF
AND A ROBBER AND A KILLER.
590
00:41:41,067 --> 00:41:42,927
Crowder: I KNOW PEOPLE
BREATHED A LOT EASIER
591
00:41:42,933 --> 00:41:45,833
AROUND THIS PART OF THE STATE
WHEN THOSE GUYS WERE GONE.
592
00:41:58,200 --> 00:41:59,670
WHAT DO YOU WANT, BAKER?
593
00:41:59,667 --> 00:42:01,567
HONOR WAS A -- WAS A PART
OF ALL OF THIS.
594
00:42:01,567 --> 00:42:03,897
AND PERSONAL, UH,
PERSONAL REPUTATION
595
00:42:03,900 --> 00:42:06,070
WAS, UH, WAS --
WAS IN THIS AS WELL.
596
00:42:06,067 --> 00:42:07,667
AND THEY UNDERSTOOD THAT.
597
00:42:07,667 --> 00:42:10,097
I THINK THE BEST THING
FOR THIS COUNTY
598
00:42:10,100 --> 00:42:13,870
WOULD BE IF THIS FEUD
WERE PUT TO BED FOR GOOD.
599
00:42:13,867 --> 00:42:15,267
DON'T YOU THINK?
600
00:42:26,067 --> 00:42:27,967
TAKE CARE
OF YOURSELF, LAURA.
601
00:42:42,467 --> 00:42:46,297
THE EYE WAS RETURNED
IN TIME FOR BURIAL.
602
00:42:46,300 --> 00:42:49,330
BURIAL WAS THAT TUESDAY,
NOVEMBER 4th.
603
00:42:49,333 --> 00:42:52,333
AND THAT ALSO HAPPENED
TO HAVE BEEN THE ELECTION DAY.
604
00:42:52,333 --> 00:42:55,273
BOB BAKER
IS ELECTED UNANIMOUSLY.
605
00:43:06,333 --> 00:43:10,133
IN THE END, PEOPLE
DID NOT WEEP FOR JOHN ASHLEY.
606
00:43:10,133 --> 00:43:16,503
THEY FELT THAT, UH, THE LAW
HAD ULTIMATELY PREVAILED.
607
00:43:16,500 --> 00:43:17,730
Luckhardt:
LAURA UPTHEGROVE, OF COURSE,
608
00:43:17,733 --> 00:43:19,303
IS STILL, UH,
VERY DISTRAUGHT
609
00:43:19,300 --> 00:43:21,700
AND UPSET OVER THE DEATH
OF JOHN ASHLEY.
610
00:43:21,700 --> 00:43:23,530
SHE, UH, GETS IN
TROUBLE ONE FORM
611
00:43:23,533 --> 00:43:26,273
OR ANOTHER, MOSTLY AGAIN
SELLING ILLEGAL LIQUORS.
612
00:43:26,267 --> 00:43:27,497
THAT'S WHAT SHE KNEW TO DO.
613
00:43:27,500 --> 00:43:31,170
AND SHE'D BE IN AND OUT
OF JUST LOCAL JAILS.
614
00:43:31,167 --> 00:43:32,727
Kleinberg:
SHE WAS PRETTY TOUGH.
615
00:43:32,733 --> 00:43:34,703
BUT EVERYTHING KIND OF
FELL APART AFTER --
616
00:43:34,700 --> 00:43:36,130
AFTER THE ASHLEYS WERE KILLED.
617
00:43:36,133 --> 00:43:39,603
ONE DAY, SHE GRABBED A BOTTLE
OF CLEANING FLUID OFF THE SHELF,
618
00:43:39,600 --> 00:43:41,970
DRANK IT AND FELL DEAD.
619
00:43:41,967 --> 00:43:45,267
AND SO THAT WAS THE TRAGIC END
OF LAURA UPTHEGROVE.
620
00:43:50,300 --> 00:43:52,500
Crowder:
SHERIFF BOB BAKER,
621
00:43:52,500 --> 00:43:55,170
WHO HAD TO ENDURE
THE CHALLENGING TIMES
622
00:43:55,167 --> 00:43:57,897
THAT HE DID HIS JOB IN,
623
00:43:57,900 --> 00:43:59,830
UH, HELPED TO CONTRIBUTE
624
00:43:59,833 --> 00:44:02,473
TO THE BETTERMENT
OF LAW ENFORCEMENT
625
00:44:02,467 --> 00:44:04,627
AND, UH, THE BETTERMENT
OF THE COMMUNITY
626
00:44:04,633 --> 00:44:08,073
BY HELPING TO TAKE PEOPLE
LIKE THE ASHLEYS OFF THE STREET.
627
00:44:14,367 --> 00:44:17,397
THE ASHLEY GANG DIDN'T PUT
AN END TO THE BAKER LAWMEN.
628
00:44:17,400 --> 00:44:19,070
HE PUT AN END TO THE ASHLEY GANG
629
00:44:19,067 --> 00:44:21,727
JUST LIKE HE SAID
HE WAS GONNA DO.
630
00:44:21,733 --> 00:44:27,303
SO IN THE LONG RUN,
THE GOOD GUYS WON.
631
00:44:27,300 --> 00:44:29,670
THE GOOD GUYS WON.
