Scopes Monkey Trial
John Scopes was a school teacher in Tennessee that illegally taught the theory of evolution in a public school. He was arrested, tried and convicted.
I assume you mean the trial in 1925 Tennessee that had John Scopes as the defendant for teaching evolution in violation of the law at that time.
The Scopes Monkey Trial in 1925, also known as the State of Tennessee v. John Thomas Scopes, involved the teaching of evolution in schools. John Scopes, a high school teacher, was charged with violating a state law that prohibited teaching evolution in public schools. The trial gained national attention as it pitted creationism against the theory of evolution.
The law prohibiting the teaching of evolution was upheld.
