Who got arrested for teaching evolution in biology?

There was a law in Tennessee that said evolution could not be taught, because it contradicted the Biblical account of human origins. Scopes challenged the law; he was among a number of teachers who believed that evolution should be taught in science classes, and Bible should be taught in religion classes. Because he violated the Tennessee law that forbade teaching about evolution, he was arrested. During a trial that was broadcast on radio and closely followed by millions of Americans on both sides of the issue, Scopes was found guilty and fined $100.
