Episode 117: George Stinney Jr- Wrongful conviction to death

Warning: This case heavily involves racism, this involves a 14 year old boy getting wrongfully convicted to the murders of two girls all because he was black and the girls were white. This is very heavy case and very hard to hear. In 1944 George Stinney Jr was living in Alcalo South Carolina. This was a very small town where a train track ran right through it. One side of the tracks was where all the black people were and the other was the whites. On day Betty June 11 years old and Mary Elma 7 years old were out riding their bikes looking for flowers, when they stopped to talk to George and his sister. This was last time those girls were seen alive, the next day their lifeless bodies were found. George was immediately arrested for this. This case is awful. What did they put George through?
