At 5:45 p.m. on September 9, 1919, nearly every patrolman on the Boston Police Department abandoned their posts, leaving the city victim to four days of crime, looting and mob violence. This is the story of what led to the strike and the political ramifications of the greatest tragedy in American policing.
