Hue and Cry: Based on the 1807 Treason Trial of Aaron Burr
Peter Wright
"Hue and Cry" is a dramatization of the prosecution in 1807 of Aaron Burr for treason, at which U. S. Chief Justice John Marshall presided. This event was for the 1800's the "Trial of the Century," equivalent in notoriety to the Lindbergh baby kidnapping trial a century later. In the years following his famous duel with Alexander Hamilton, Burr traveled to the West and recruited men for an expedition of a mysterious nature. He was charged with everything from "filibustering" - private invasion of a foreign power without federal authority - to aiming at the overthrow of the U. S. government and the execution of President Thomas Jefferson. Historians differ in their conclusions about what crimes. if any, he may have hoped to set in motion.
