Retired ISP trooper David Morrison will give a presentation on The Brady Gang.

PROGRAM DESCRIPTION

 David L. Morrison is a retired Indiana State Police trooper and author of “Thunder at Caley Church” which describes the events surrounding the murder of Indiana State Police trooper Paul V. Minneman who was shot by the Brady Gang outside of Caley Church, located in White County, Indiana, on May 25, 1937.  The members of the Brady Gang were the subject of a massive manhunt, on the FBI’s most wanted list, and earned the title “Public Enemy Number 1.”

 The presentation will follow the Gang’s short career of robbery and murder to its violent end.  So hang on and join the police in their pursuit of the “Second Dillinger Gang.”

Copies of “Thunder at Caley Church” by David Morrison will be available for purchase and signing.
