What do you know about George Stinney Jr?

George Stinney Jr was executed in 1944 by electric chair. He was convicted of murdering 2 young girls ages 7 and 11. 

He was only 14 when the police came for him. He had a two hour trial and 10 minute jury deliberation before being named guilty.

Only 84 days after the girls’ murder he was executed. He was only 5′ and not yet 100 lbs, having to sit on books to reach the headpiece.

70 years later, in 2014, he was found not guilty. The police had framed him since he was black. It was said to never be questioned until much later.
Rest In Peace.
