Published 2 years, 9 months ago
Description
Ethical financial questions swirl around Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas again. This time he took a nearly $300,000 loan out from a friend to buy a gigantic rolling mansion. The lender says the loan was satisfied, but that doesn’t mean it was paid back in full and suddenly, both the borrower and lender have very tight lips on the matter. A fascinating picture from the Civil War era fosters curiosity about its backstory. We will talk to author and documentarian Steve Procko who unraveled the story behind a 156-year-old Civil War photograph of soldiers incorrectly identified as Confederates. Plus, we’ll jump into a fascinating criminal case with Courtney. Always a crowd favorite! It’s Monday on The Mark Thompson Show! 8/7/23
