@BillRM,
Booth wasn't hunted down by law enforcement agents--just ordinary grunt soldiers. The behavior of the Philadelphia police was certainly vicious and barbaric, but there is no good reason to assume that they intended to start a fire--the fire started when incendiaries Africa had already stored in the house ignited. The term you wanted was
row, you semi-literate chimp.
You obviously didn't examine the evidence--your mind (or what passes for a ind in your cranium) is made up, so you're doing the rhetorical equivalent of sticking your fingers in your ears and chanting: "La-la-la-la, i can't hear you."
