07/28/2007: ""Innocent" lynching victim was attempted murderer"

Roger Malcom, according to the FBI synopsis of the case, had been jailed 11 days earlier after stabbing a white farmer, Barnette Hester, in the chest. Witnesses told authorities that Malcom suspected Hester had slept with his wife, Dorothy.

Cohen of the SPLC said many killers have died unpunished and "everyone has a sense that the clock is ticking."
