In 2017, Professor Timothy Tyson introduced a new piece of evidence claiming the woman who accused Till of making an unwanted sexual advance toward her decades ago lied.
After a yearlong reinvestigation of the case, the Department of Justice’s Civil Rights Division determined they could not prove the woman, Carolyn Bryant Donham, had lied about the incident to federal prosecutors and closed the case for a second time last December.
>Now, relatives of Till are urging law enforcement to reverse the decision to close the investigation and prosecute Bryant Donham, now in her 80s, according to The Associated Press.
>the woman that accused emmitt till is still alive that's wild to think about
Jonathan Nelson
believe women
Hunter Fisher
What exactly is there to prosecute here? Is lying a criminal offense?
Josiah Moore
They wanted the DOJ to bring Hate Crime charges. You know, the double jeopardy special that they use against whites only that has next to zero standards of evidence and uses past statements to frame one's "state of mind"
Oliver Kelly
I could be wrong but doesn't there need to be an actual crime for hate crime charges to apply?
Aaron Long
She picked a bad time to virtue signal
Landon Jones
No They invented the federal hate crime statute specifically to go after whites that were acquitted of State level crime
Ayden Stewart
What's the new piece of evidence?
We just had the Jussie Smollet sentencing yesterday, user. Please lurk more.
Tyler Murphy
Wait hang on was there even any hate crime legislation in 1955? If not then it's ex post facto, right?
Juan Bell
>ex post facto The process is the punishment They railroad someone and you spend years appealing and in the end even if you win, you already lost
Jaxson Carter
there's that, for sure. There's also prohibitions against ex-post facto laws and bills of attainder. Congress can't pass a law to put someone in jail, and you can't find someone guilty of committing a crime before the law existed that calls it a crime.
Juan Brooks
Well I doubt it would even get to trial if that's the case, and I don't know of any reason to hold that woman in jail or deny her bail, so it doesn't seem like much of a punishment.
Camden Robinson
Knowing what we know about the media's portrayal of the Trayvon Martin incident, George Floyd, Rodney King, Joggers, etc etc, is it fairly certain Till did in fact rape her?
We had multiple videos of niggers killing white toddlers in 2021 and they really want to guilt trip you over a black rapist getting lynched 100 years ago
Camden Hall
I want a job in the civil rights division. You get to pull up 200 year old cases and bill hours to them.
Caleb Sullivan
bruh just ask her if she lied
Benjamin Adams
>Get that white bitch she's already dead, confessed on death bed she made up the rape. Satan's now putting her soul through the grinder everyday forever.
