Ex-Deputy Charged In 2 Decades-Old Slayings

[Beyond Belief]

WASHINGTON -- An infamous moment in the struggle for black civil rights in the South has returned to the headlines after a former Mississippi sheriff's deputy was arrested on Wednesday in connection with a cold case that's more than four decades old.



James Ford Seale has been charged in the 1964 slayings of two black teenagers who were long believed to have been kidnapped and killed by the Ku Klux Klan.

I hope this incident gives families hope that a cold case is never too old to solve. I know at this point, it's "alleged", innocent until proven guilty, blah, blah, blah.

I am with you samhoney. I hope this gives other families hope and I hope this makes some of those bastards from 40 years ago give more looks over their shoulders. It's never too late for that knock on the door......
