mar 1, 1916 - El Paso Jail Fire

Description:

Baths used to kill body lice and fight typhus ended up causing multiple people to be brutally killed when during a gasoline bath, someone lit a cigarette and set everything ablaze. The bathing prisoners were evaporated with 26 Mexicans and 2 Americans being killed. It was a horrific and stupid event that never should have been possible.
