Mississippi killings under review – Ku Klux Klan (KKK) murders of civil rights activists

(U.S.) Mississippi killings under review – Ku Klux Klan murders of civil rights activists
— Clarion Ledger: “Feds investigating 1964 murders in Philadelphia”
— Further investigation into living suspects in the 1964 deaths of Civil Rights activists Schwerner, Chaney, and Goodman
— “The Ku Klux Klan’s killings of three civil rights workers in Mississippi that stunned a nation 45 years ago again are being investigated.”
— “‘This case is being actively reviewed by the Civil Rights Division and the FBI,’ Alejandro Miyar, a spokesman for the division, told The Clarion-Ledger. ‘Our goal in investigating this case is to lend our assistance to authorities in Mississippi so that they may make a determination whether sufficient evidence exists for a state prosecution.'”
— “Five suspects are still alive in the case, including reputed Klansman Billy Wayne Posey, who told Mississippi investigators there were ‘a lot of persons involved in the murders that did not go to jail.'”
— “The news comes as civil rights activists have been taking part in 45th anniversary ceremonies remembering the June 21, 1964, killings of James Chaney, Andrew Goodman and Michael Schwerner and calling for justice in that case and others from the civil rights era.”
— “In 1967, 18 men went on trial on federal conspiracy charges, and seven were convicted.”
— “But the only murder prosecution took place in 2005 when a Neshoba County jury convicted reputed Klan leader Edgar Ray Killen on three counts of manslaughter. The FBI assisted the state’s investigation that ended with Killen being sentenced to 60 years in prison.”
— “The Clarion-Ledger has since revealed that the Neshoba County grand jury that indicted Killen came within one vote of also charging Posey, with a deciding vote against indictment cast by a Posey relative. The newspaper also has found three potential new witnesses against Posey”
— “The Clarion-Ledger has obtained a copy of statements Posey gave state authorities in which he admitted he was among those who pursued the trio that night, was there when they were killed and helped haul their bodies to the dam to bury them.”
