IDK if crowds collected at the ambush site but when the bodies were brought to the undertaker in Arcadia it turned into a three ring circus scene.

For years and years (and maybe still today) people would dig in the trees there looking for bullets, even though the pine trees growing there were harvested multiple times in the ensuing decades. People also chipped the original granite marker stone erected by the police jury until it was pretty much unreadable. A few years ago the PJ placed heavy bronze marker beside the old one. But the B&C thing does bring a few tourists to Bienville Parish, which is very rural and sparsely populated.
