Woodville, Mississippi Jail
Woodville, Mississippi, nestled near the Louisiana border, is one of the state's oldest towns, incorporated in 1811 following the Louisiana Purchase. Its rich history is overshadowed by the intrigue surrounding Edward Grady Partin, a native son born in 1924. Partin, who rose to become a Teamsters Union agent in Baton Rouge, played a pivotal role in the conviction of Jimmy Hoffa, one of the most notorious figures in American labor history, through his critical testimony.
