I’ve been doing some digging into the Christopher Reynolds case, and one small detail caught my attention: the location where his colleagues found him. The Ridge Road bridge area, specifically where Reynolds was ambushed, was apparently quite dimly lit back in 1911. It makes me wonder if this darkness played a role in the assailants’ ability to catch him off guard and escape unseen afterward. I've read that railroad police faced incredibly tough conditions back then, and it’s sobering to think about how improved lighting or better visibility could have potentially changed the outcome for Reynolds. He had such a challenging job trying to keep those freight yards safe, and my heart goes out to his family and friends who never saw justice served. It's a stark reminder of the difficulties faced by law enforcement trying to protect us, even more so 100+ years ago. Anyone else have insights into how the conditions back then impacted cases like this?
