The family of Emmett Till — a 14-year-old black boy who was abducted, tortured and lynched in Mississippi in 1955 — are calling for the arrest of his white female accuser after they discovered an unserved, 70-year-old warrant charging her with kidnapping.
Relatives and members of the Emmett Till Legacy Foundation were searching a Mississippi courthouse basement for evidence in the notorious murder when they found the 1955 warrant for Carolyn Bryant Donham last week.
The family received no justice at the time of Emmet Till’s murder. Bryant and Milam were tried of the murder and acquitted by an all-white jury, but confessed to the murder in magazine interviews a year later.
