He was only 14 years old when he was executed in an electric chair. During his trial, even on the day of his execution, he always carried a Bible in his hands, claiming he was innocent. He was accused of killing two white girls aged 11 and 7. The bodies were found near the house where he lived. His trial was only 2 hours, and the dictation only took 10 minutes, which consisted of an all white jury. His parents were threatened and prevented from being present in the courtroom, and were even expelled from the city. Before the execution, he spent 81 days in prison and was not allowed any visitors. He was held in solitary 80 miles from his home, and attended his hearing without a lawyer or his parents. He was electrocuted with 5,380 volts of electricity in his head. 70 years later, his innocence was finally proven by a judge in South Carolina. It was found that someone set him up solely for being black. May his innocent soul rest in peace. 😔 #BlackHistoryMonth」2月6日 1時46分
