THE DAILY MISSISSIPPIAN/ And Justice for all

Our View – Forty-one years later, justice is finally served for Edgar Ray Killen.

Exactly 41 years later, Edgar Ray Killen became the first man to be convicted on state charges related to the horrific murders. The irony of 41 years elapsing before justice was served, at least partially, should not be forgotten.
