This is the stairway inside the Old City Hall in Brunswick, Ga. Back in the late 1800's, a man was arrested for slapping a black woman who supposedly used profanity at him (remember what time period this was in). When the judge ordered him to either apologize publicly or be sent to jail, the man refused. As he was being escorted down the stairs to the jailing area, the man pulled out a revolver from his vest pocket and shot three officers, one of which died from hi wounds. Officer Macy is said to still patrol these stairs even to this day.
