 Bethea says that there were similarities between Jerome and Bisbee from the start. Both started early in the morning, Jerome at 6 and Bisbee at 6.30. Both had roughly one-to-one ratios of anti-union and pro-union people involved. The difference is the scale. The Bisbee deportation was about ten times the size of Jerome's. There were about 2,000 deputies deported.
