    Booth didn't flee to a warehouse, he fled South to a tavern for supplies. It's also interesting to note that [Andrew] Johnson, should also have been swimming with the fishes. Booth's friends were meant to take out a political figure each.

    The conspiracy was proven. Booth originally conspired to kidnap the President, Vice-President and secretary of state in order to cripple the Union government which he felt opressed the Confederate South.
