I would like to know how he got off with manslaughter charges when he was accused of plotting the entire thing.
 
Stratus good point. I thought manslaughter meant someone unintentionally killed someone.

No, that’s not what it means. Manslaughter means killing someone without malice or premeditation, as opposed to murder, which requires malicious intent.

It was murder all right. In any case, that SOB will die in prison.
 
OMHO Murder would have been the just verdict. But, knowing what I do about the legal system he will probably be sent to a medical holding area or given a “free pass” due to his age and condition.

I hope I am wrong and am praying for his soul and the souls of those he harmed or killed.
 
I don’t care if he is an 80 year old wheelchair bound man on oxygen they should string him up just like he and all his KKK goons did to all those people. I hope he rots in Hell with all the other Nazi’s! and KKK

I don’t. I hope he repents and one day has a chance to ask for forgiveness from the three he murdered when he gets to heaven.

Peace

ps - the three victims were shot, not hung.
 
I was reffereing to the common clan practice of hanging as part of lynchings
 
I put it is fair,but jumped the gun:nope: He should have gotten murder.Some people say it is too late to do anything I do not agree,it is never too late.
 
Was the showing up in a wheelchair and an oxygen tank supposed to elict sympathy for “the poor old man”? What a crock! I feel no sympathy whatsoever; any more than I did for the SUV jumping - dancing MJ showing up in pajamas for “a back problem” or OJ being touted as “crippled with arthritis”.
I suppose the lawyers believe that the public will feel sorry for these perpetrators if they appear to be incapacitated.
Killen was 39 years old and healthy when he committed these atrocities and should be seen and treated as he was at that time.
At 80 though, being sentenced to 90 years, he’ll die where he belonged for the past 41 years.
