Pensacola True Crime Tour: Sweet Tea Murders with a Detective

Pensacola’s history is deep—but beneath its charm lies a legacy of frontier violence and forgotten trials. Forget theatrical ghost lore. The Sweet Tea Murders Walking Tour explores documented local crimes through the eyes of someone who investigated them for a living. Led by Michael Earl Simmons—retired 30-year Pensacola Police officer, homicide investigator, and author of 15 local crime and history books—this 70-minute walk unpacks five authentic killings, including the 1833 assassination of Mayor Salvador Alba, maritime violence, and a mother's 1914 vengeance. • Meeting Spot: Starts and ends outside The Bodacious Olive (407 S. Palafox St). Arrive early to grab coffee or food inside! • Low-Mobility Route: Stroll just steps away to the flat perimeter of historic Plaza Ferdinand VII and back. Under one city block total—zero strenuous trekking and fully accessible. • Schedule: Saturdays at 4:00 PM. Reserve early; groups are kept small for live Q&A.
