About this listen

Special Agent Edwin Woodriffe was one of the first African-Americans to integrate the Federal Bureau of Investigation in the 1960s. On January 8, 1969, while attempting to apprehend an escaped fugitive, he and partner Anthony Palmisano were mortally wounded, making Woodriffe the first African-American FBI agent to be killed in the line of duty. In a time of racial unrest and civil uprising, the event rocked the Department of Justice and the American people, and inspired one of the most massive manhunts in the history of the nation's capital. This is the story behind the headline.
