From Democracynow.org:
In Mississippi, a former sheriff’s deputy is set to go on trial in a civil rights murder case dating back more than forty years. James Ford Seale has been charged in connection with the 1964 murders of nineteen-year old African-American hitchhikers Henry Hezekiah Dee and Charles Eddie Moore. The two were beaten and dumped alive into the Mississippi River. Their bodies were not found for another two months. Seale’s family claimed he was deceased after investigators reopened the case seven years ago. But efforts by one of the victim’s brothers revealed Seale was alive and still living down the road from where the kidnappings occurred.
