Senator John McClellan died in Little Rock (Pulaski County). McClellan served longer in the U.S. Senate than any other Arkansan and was one of its most powerful members. Under McClellan’s leadership, the Senate conducted some of its most significant investigations, including probes into the activities of such men as Jimmy Hoffa, Dave Beck, and Billie Sol Estes.
