I think he was guilty.
I saw a movie about it some time ago and they showed that she was murdered by a Black man.
One of the girl’s relatives studied the case for some time and eventually concluded that Franks was the murderer.
Evidently the MSM feels that the progressives are in danger of losing their complete mastery of the Jewish vote due to doubts engendered by Obama/Kerry giving the store away to the Iranians.
Time to resurrect the specter of the Klan, Rednecks and Republicans!
Well, Steve Oney has made a career of playing ‘blame the ______ (Black guy)’. Frank brought in a team of the best New York lawyers that money could buy, so no one can say he didn’t have adequate representation.
In fact, one should view it for the civil rights breakthrough that it was - the jury accepted the testimony of a Black man against a white man.
Frank’s proponent finally prevailed upon a senile old man to recant and provide an alibi decades after the trial. Mann was never subject to cross examination as to his new story, and no one wanted to dig too deeply.
I saw this old movie about on TV it back in 1961. I still remember it!
THEY WON’T FORGET. (1937)
