The Final Days of the Indefatigable Huey P. Long, Jr. | Bayou Brief

Senator Huey Long was shot and killed at the Louisiana State
Capitol in 1935 by
Carl Weiss. Long’s bodyguards, nicknamed
the "
Cossacks" or "skullcrushers", responded by firing at
Weiss with their own pistols, killing him; an autopsy found
that Weiss had been shot more than 60 times. 

Long, who was a prominent and controversial political figure,
was in the process of preparing a presidential bid when he
was assassinated.

Long  gave himself the nickname “Kingfish,” saying “I’m a
small fish here in Washington. But I’m the Kingfish to the
folks down in Louisiana.”



Carl Austin Weiss Sr.
(December 6, 1906 – September 8, 1935)
