Questionable source for claims of "baseless" executions

[edit]

Possibly source bias in the claim in the article, in the phrase "During Burbridge's rule in Kentucky, he directed the execution and imprisonment of numerous people, including public figures, on charges of treason and other high crimes, many of which were baseless.[2]". Bryan S. Bush not necessarily an unbiased source for this information. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.242.60.146 (talk) 02:20, 29 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
