Reply #50: Considering how many were either never charged or convicted in the 60s?

True they are getting up in years.

What do you call being drug behind a truck by 3 white men in June 7, 1998?

Brewer, a former jailhouse Ku Klux Klan leader, admitted he was present when James Byrd Jr. was dragged to death. But he said another man, Shawn Allen Berry, 24, slashed Byrd's throat and chained him to the truck.

Brewer acknowledged kicking Byrd and spraying his face with black paint, but he said it was a reflex action in trying to break up a fight between Byrd and King.

However, he admitted that as the truck was speeding down the road, all three men knew the exact moment Byrd's body hit a culvert and was decapitated.
