Dan White, a former San Francisco supervisor, had a personal and political vendetta against Mayor George Moscone and openly gay Supervisor Harvey Milk. On that fateful day, White snuck into City Hall, evading metal detectors, and made his way to the mayor's office. In a shocking turn of events, White shot and killed Moscone, then proceeded to Milk's office, where he assassinated the trailblazing LGBTQ+ icon. The brutal murders sent shockwaves through the city, sparking outrage and riots. White's defense, dubbed the "Twinkie defense," was later infamously used to justify his actions, but ultimately, he was convicted of voluntary manslaughter.
