Since there was no law or order in the Kansas territories, during Bleeding Kansas John Brown and others literally got away with murder at Pottawatomie Creek. That being why John Brown thought he would get away with his raid, John Brown's Raid at Harper's Ferry, Virginia but did not get away as easy that time. He and others were hung for treason.
