JACKSON – The families of two black teenagers killed by Klansmen in 1964 are suing Franklin County, saying the county’s sheriff at the time helped cover up the crime.



On May 2, 1964, Klansmen abducted and beat Henry Hezekiah Dee and Charles Eddie Moore, both 19, in Franklin County before dumping them into the Mississippi River, where they drowned.



How can the county be held financially accountable 44 years after the fact.I'm sure they'll win,everybody wants to teach all of us backward racist in Mississippi a lesson.
As horrible as these murders may be,I don't see why the people of Franklin County should be held responsible for something they didn't do.

Can we sue England?

I guess if they work at it hard enough they can keep playing things like this out till the end of time. But I have to say that old dead horse has nothing left but a leg bone or two.

I'm suing Italy. Cuz way back when, the Romans took over much of Europe and made people slaves, so, I'm suing....now where's that number to Richard Swartz, one call, that's all!

Oh...I know if I lived in Rome during it's hay day that I'd be a water bearer or something. Groveling around putting someone's shoes on their feet. Revenge is never ending. Turn the other cheek are just written words. People want money...when ever and how ever they can get it.

And plenty of continued wah wah publicity to keep those giveaway programs going.
