Presented by Robert D. Webster
On Saturday, May 28, 1977, the Commonwealth of Kentucky experienced its worst tragedy since the Civil War. The Beverly Hills Supper Club, located in Southgate, Kentucky, was packed with people over the holiday weekend when a fire broke out.
Before midnight, more than 120 bodies had been pulled from the burning structure. Dozens more would be found the following day in what was the third-worst nightclub fire in our nation’s history. Rumor and speculation followed the event for decades. Today, due to the results of a recent five-year investigation, many believe that the fire was intentionally set.
Robert D. Webster has written the true untold story of what led to Kentucky’s worst tragedy—a story of greed, corruption, deceit, Mafia rule, government cover-ups, kidnapping, and even murder. In fact, his book details one of the worst cases of mass murder in US history.
