Death by Misadventure

Anna Brown was a member of the Native American Osage people. The land they were walking on was designated as their sacred tribal homelands or as it's now called the Osage nation. In October of 1897, 24 years before Anna Brown's murder, the Phoenix Oil Company were drilling a series of oil wells in the Osage reservation. It was only much later that the bullet wound to Anna's head was found and what had first been put down to a simple accident turned out to be just the first of many deaths which became known as the Bloodland murders.
