Even after the discovery of an arrest warrant and an unpublished memoir, the woman behind Emmett Till‘s lynching has yet again avoided prosecution. A grand jury on Tuesday declined to indict Carolyn Bryant Donham, the woman who accused Emmett of making a pass at her in 1955 in Mississippi during the Jim Crow Era. Leflore County district attorney Dewayne Richardson said the grand jury heard more than seven hours of testimony from investigators and witnesses last week and decided there wasn’t enough evidence to pursue charges against Donham. (According to StlantaBlackstar).
Even though she is reportedly sick from cancer and is in hospice care, Carolyn Bryant Donham continue to lie about what occurred, mostly to protect her own sorry despicable ass 70 years later.
