Group of answer choices Nicola Sacco and Bartolomeo Vanzetti Enrico Caruso and Andre Siegfried Reinhold Niebuhr and Stewart Poyntz Stanton Blanche and Jacob Abrams

The correct answer is A) Nicola Sacco and Bartolomeo Vanzetti.

The two immigrants arrested for their participation in a robbery in which a security guard was killed whose case became a cause célèbre were Nicola Sacco and Bartolomeo Vanzetti.

In a time where persecution of Communists and anarchists was part of the United States, these two Italian immigrants were considered anarchists. They were accused of robbery of a shoe store in Massachusetts where a security guard was killed during the incident. The police arrested both men who, unfortunately for them, were carrying guns. Although there was not enough evidence for a sentence, in August 1927 they were executed, creating so much controversy for this decision in the years to follow.
