Callin Baton Rouge - Bullet Holes or Broken Marble - Huey Long's State Capital Legacy
If you grew up in Baton Rouge you either had field trips or family outings to tour what everyone calls the "new" State Capital building (even though it was built in 1932). Still the tallest capital building in the U.S., it was built by Gov Huey Long who was assassinated there after a speech in 1935. Sam wonders if the holes in the marble were caused by bullets as some tour guides have explained, or if those stories have taken on a new life over the decades.
