A proposito di questo titolo
In the early 1900s, the name Ernest Bush appeared quietly in Nebraska newspapers — just another name in ink.
But behind that ordinary name was a story of murder, manhunts, prison escapes, and a brazen outlaw who would earn the nickname “The Chain Man.”
Born in Denmark and raised in Nebraska, Bush’s life veered far from the immigrant dream. After a first-degree murder conviction, a surprising pardon, and years behind bars, he resurfaced again and again in headlines across the Midwest.
He escaped from prison.
He stole horses.
He confronted law enforcement while shaving at a roadside camp.
He forced his way into homes and cafes.
And he left entire communities on edge.
By 1922, the man once known as Ernest Bush was making national headlines under a different name — and standing trial before packed courtrooms.
But even in death, the mystery lingered.
When his grave was finally marked, it wasn’t under the name most people knew.
In this episode of Headlines & Tidbits, we unravel the strange, violent, and almost unbelievable story of the man called The Chain Man of Nebraska.
