    Great video as usual. As one of the only black people in my town, it makes me wonder if we've had any similar events in our area and if that may be why.

      i don't think this was a lynching it sounds more like a murder with an effort to misdirect the sheriff!

      @@WynnofThule Thank you! I’ve lived in the area for twenty years and this was the first time hearing of it. I would wager that similar occurrences happens near you as well.

    that's not a lynching that's just a murder with possible racial undertones (and i do mean possible it wouldn't be the first time someone left something to misdirect Barney and judge dingleberry!!) a lynching requires public outrage over a previous unanswered incident (such as a rape or string of thefts!) and that's not present here, the fact the note was written in pencil instead of ink tells me it was a spur of the moment afterthought and not a planned move. in a lynching they normally leave the biggest sign they can telling what they did to make sure any and all get the message!

      @@TiptonBros yeah i believe it some are race,power or virtue signaling obsessed and to those morons any black death other than natural causes in a white area back then is an automatic lynching!! and as long as your doing interesting stuff i'll be around!
