The federal government has reopened its investigation into the slaying of Emmett Till, the black teenager whose brutal 1955 killing in Mississippi shocked the world.
A Justice Department report to Congress says the agency is reinvestigating Till's slaying after receiving what it calls "new information."
Till, a 14-year-old boy from Chicago, was kidnapped from his uncle's home in the town of Money and killed after he wolf-whistled at Carolyn Donham, a shopkeeper.
Three days later, his mutilated body was found in the muddy Tallahatchie River, weighted down with a cotton gin fan. His left eye was missing, and his right eye was dangling on his cheek. The body was identified only by a ring he was wearing.
Two men -- Donham's then-husband Roy Bryant and his half-brother J.W. Milam -- were charged with murder but acquitted in the slaying of Till. The men later confessed to the crime in a magazine interview, but weren't retried and are now dead.

That’s why Sleepy hasn’t seen or heard of the Uranium One scandal, he is working on the backlog. Onto 1956.
Lawyers in the DOJ have to get busy doing something …
Are they going to come clean about what he really did? I doubt it.
This is good. Should help reduce the number of “pot shots” President Trump receives from the JD every damn day. Keep them busy doing something else.
Unless they are goong to blame Trump for this as well
They could mention how his father Louis Till was hanged for raping and murdering an ItalIan woman while he was stationed in Europe after WWII. Or how he beat and tried to strangle his wife.
All the murders which are current, all the black on black, and black on other, murders happening right now, and this needs more “investigation”?
Coincidentally reopened right before the mid-term elections. Not a chance this will be used to stir up racial strife to increase the Black turnout, right?
As I have posted over and over, it is like clockwork that Democrats inflame racial strife every two and four years right around election time. Every. time.
I wonder if they’re going after Carolyn for lying about Till’s actions. Or possibly there was another accomplice to the killing.
What did he really do?
>>Lawyers in the DOJ have to get busy doing something …<<
Thy are hoping to find a link between the slaying and stormy daniels, which of course will link to President Trump.
It was years before she was born but that is a fact and thus irreverent.
On his walk home, Trayvon attempted murder but was shot and killed
Till was butchered. The whites who did it murdered him because “he didn’t know his place”.
The Justice Department has the time and people for this?
Yes, they have time for a decades-old incident which has been dealt with (over, and over, and over...), but not even the “if it bleeds it leads” media has time for the many, many heinous attacks and murders of whites by blacks. Why don’t they just re-open the murder of Kitty Genovese while they’re at it? How many people even know that rape/murder was committed by a black man?
It’s crazy how many violent black felons Mississippi, Alabama, and Georgia currently have locked up in prison in 2018. I bet they’re all just peaceful cat-callers too.
Anyone want to go hang out with them in prison and find out?
Tortured and murdered by Democrats.
