Emmett Till protesters stormed a senior living facility in search of the woman who has been accused of setting a lynch mob on him after a 1955 arrest warrant was unearthed in a Mississippi courthouse.
Carolyn Bryant Donham, now in her 80s, of Raleigh, North Carolina, reportedly accused Till of whistling at her in a grocery store in Money, Mississippi, in 1955.
A week later, the 14-year-old Till was abducted, tortured, fatally shot and dumped into the Tallahatchie River, where his body was found swollen and mutilated three days later. His open casket shocked the nation.
Donham's husband, Roy Bryant, and half-brother, JW Milam, were arrested for his lynching, but later acquitted. The pair eventually admitted guilt, but couldn't be prosecuted due to double-jeopardy laws.
Last week, the unserved arrest warrant for Donham was found in the basement of a Mississippi courthouse, causing Till's family and activists to once again call for justice.

They just so happened to find this warrant ? I find it unlikely.
Good Lord Almighty— what self-righteous Marxist a@@holes. Just look how “right” they think they are. Disgusting. some of them old guys stay armed, btw- even in the homes. For just such potential danger and abuse.
What happened to this young man was a horrible crime, and that the guilty substantially escaped punishment was shameful. But the shame belongs to the guilty and those who excused them, and no one else.
If you don’t believe that, then answer this:
How many young whites have been killed in racial murders since 1955?
Wiki says she’s 88 years old now
(for the thread)
Um
...the accused probably a Democrat....
The left and it’s protected class is quickly demonstrating it has abandoned the rules of a civilized society.
Absolutely shameful behavior, but oh-so-typical. Check out the “Black Panthers” t shirts and such. How about the Jews killed by blacks, “just because”? See any Jews invading an elder care facility and terrorizing the fragile inhabitants?
Wasn’t the lynch mob made up of whites and blacks?
Oops that’s Google not Wikipedia
I wonder how many folk who are outraged at this behavior would also cheer Mossad for chasing down aged concentration campe Nazi murderers in Brazil and executing them
there is no law to prosecute her now.
I am outraged that these people are terrorizing innocent people in the name of delayed justice..
So were they going to drag this old woman out and Lynch her also? I mean what were they going to do, she may have dementia and not know anything.
They terrorized the whole nursing home.
I am outraged at this and it is no comparison
If Adolph Hitler was living in Switzerland and a bunch of Jews stormed a retirement home with guns and bullet proof vest in Switzerland looking for him it I would say the same thing. You cant go terrorizing innocent people who clearly already have typical old age problems and confusion
So, ah, a lynch mob stormed the place, that about right?
What some call “Justice” is simply Revenge. Lynch her in her wheelchair? Its like finding really old Nazi guards and arresting after 70+ years.
They just so happened to find this warrant ? I find it unlikely.
Thousands, millions of "found" ballots, so what's an old warrant from 1955?
I would cheer Mossad. I do not cheer the people chasing an 88 year old woman seeking to do harm
