Download The Past Is Never Dead: The Trial of James Ford Seale and Mississippi's Struggle for Redemption AudioBook Free
ON, MAY 2, 1964, Klansman Adam Ford Seale found two black hitchhikers and drowned the young men in the Mississippi River. Seale spent more than 40 years a free of charge man, before finally facing trial in 2007. But there could have been two defendants in the ensuing case: Adam Ford Seale for kidnapping and murder, and the Condition of Mississippi for complicity - knowingly aiding, abetting, and creating men like Seale. In The Former is Never Dead, Edgar Award-winning creator Harry MacLean uses Seale's trial, the legal difficulties of prosecuting kidnapping and murder charges ages later, and any risk of strain on a state contending with a past that cannot be forgiven. MacLean's narrative is the bill of the gripping legal challenge and an serious yoga on the likelihood of redemption.
