  • Brushy Mountain housed thousands of murderers and other life-sentence criminals, like James Earl Ray, the convicted assassin of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., and Byron "Low Tax" Looper, who was convicted of killing his Tennessee Senate opponent, Tommy Burks. Brushy Mountain was known as the "'end of the line" for prisoners like Ray, and the tour gives you an insider look at this maximum security facility.

    Thanks for sharing very interesting. Have a goodnight. The building on the outside is a nice looking piece of architecture. You just wonder why all these buildings are just being unused it seems to be a waste.

    I took my daughter to tour it and it has such a creepy vibe. Did you go to the restaurant? And that little town there has a nice fall festival.

    I worked there back in 95-96. What happens at Brushy, stays at Brushy. Remember that when you hear these stories. There's so much more than what they allow to be heard. Don't ask for it to be told, it won't be. At least not to outsiders. For any inmates ir officers from my time who may read this, do you know what happened with Treeman? Did he follow through and come back? Tree was my inmate teacher, really. Officers can only teach from officer perspective. Tree taught me from their side. He has to be gone by now. RIP Treeman, I hope you made it.

    Don b., thanks for sharing, but I have to say the music is too darn loud. It drowns out some of what the people are saying.

      If it's guarded, it's to keep vandalism from happening
