Meet our first assassin, John Wilkes Booth. Booth succeeded in his mission to assassinate President Abraham Lincoln on April 14, 1865. He escaped the scene of the assassination on horseback and evaded the authorities for 12 days before he was captured. Booth comes to life with the skills of Oklahoma’s Mateja Govich.
