Items related to Invitation to a Lynching
In 1963 two black men, Freddie Lee Pitts and Wilbert Lee, were convicted and sentenced to death in Florida for two murders the author contends they did not commit. This is a dramatic and controversial book in which the pursuit of justice and the workings of the American judicial system are shown as leading not necessarily to the same end. Mr. Miller chronicles the desperate plight of two black men held in a white sheriff's jail, the "confession," the "trial", and the bizarre legal tactics taken to keep them in prison.
