The Ordeal of Dr. Mudd Summary The tragic story of Dr. Samuel Mudd of Maryland, who in 1865 was arrested for his alleged complicity in the conspiracy to assassinate Abraham Lincoln and sentenced by an illegal military court to a lifetime of hard labor at the American penal colony of Fort Jefferson on the Dry Tortugas. The unfortunate Mudd, whose only "crime" was to set the broken leg of a mud-caked stranger – who turned out to be John Wilkes Booth – endures the cruelties of the sadistic commandant and the condemnation of the public at large, until his selfless courage during a yellow fever epidemic earns him a pardon by President Andrew Johnson. The film implicates Lincoln’s secretary of war Edwin Stanton, whom some conspiracy theorists now believe was behind the assassination plot.
