SUMMARY:Sweet Tea Murders Walking Tour: Crimes Around the Plaza
DESCRIPTION:Pensacola is one of America’s oldest cities\, and around Plaza Ferdinand\, the past does not sit quietly. \nOn Thursday\, July 9\, at 6:00 PM\, join Sweet Tea Murders for its first walking tour: Crimes Around the Plaza\, a short but unforgettable half-mile walk through the historic heart of downtown Pensacola. \nWe will meet at the Plaza Ferdinand fountain\, then make our way around the plaza as five fascinating murder stories unfold — stories that span more than a century\, from 1833 to 1940. These are not distant legends or ghost stories. They are real cases\, real people\, and real places\, told where history actually happened. \nThe tour will be led by Michael Earl Simmons\, a retired police officer\, former homicide detective\, police historian\, author\, and master storyteller. With the eye of an investigator and the voice of a Southern storyteller\, Michael will guide guests through old Pensacola’s darker corners — where politics\, jealousy\, violence\, justice\, and mystery once crossed paths in the streets surrounding the plaza. \nThe walk is short\, but the stories are deep. \nCome spend a summer evening in historic downtown Pensacola\, where the fountain still runs\, the old buildings still stand\, and the truth behind these forgotten crimes still lingers. \nSweet Tea Murders Walking Tour: Crimes Around the Plaza\nThursday\, July 9 | 6:00 PM\nMeet at the Plaza Ferdinand fountain\nFive murder stories | 1833–1940 | Short half-mile walk

SUMMARY:Sweet Tea Murders LIVE: No Safe Haven - The Billings Murders
