He's definitely old school. But the understanding was work I think. This crime happening to a man that people knew and loved solely because he was black pulled certain scales that covered his eyes away.
Sheriff is a heartwarming man. I applaud his dedication to victims and their families. He believed murder is murder despite of who commits it. God bless him.
I beg to differ not every white Sheriff was in the business of murdering black people or are harassing even today there are white people who want the black people to try to regain their Civil Rights I don't believe the sheriff was in on it I believe he's a man of Courage sincere caring about all residents in his district
King died with a lot of anger and hate in his heart so he couldn’t ask for forgiveness which makes me believe his soul rots in the bowels of hell... Right where it belongs
I hope you weren't referring to Dr king. if you were I don't know what God you are praying to but you need to try Jesus the son of The true living God the evil people that did this is in the bowls of heLL I hope that all people that think like these evil people are going to follow these men into hell I pray yall turn away from hate try God
forgiveness ,,,,,,,, how bout no forgiveness, how about that , how about he deserved to suffer horribly for the rest of his retched life .......they let him off easy with a death sentence . sociopathic barbarians raised up in a barbaric place , i expect no less
"Too bad it wasn't another black man that did it." How about the fact that this was a heinous crime that devastated a family and hurt the community? Im done with old Southern white men. That racism is annoying and uncalled for.
I remember crying my eyes out when this happened and I’m white? Holy shit, u mean white skinned less melanin skinned people, because really that’s all it comes down to u ignorant idiot, the amount of melanin in our skin... nothing else.... u mean white people cried for this family and their tragic loss? Holy shit? Wow? I’m completely sure I’m certainly not the only one either, it was very upsetting to any one with a heart, this was a disgrace and such a tragic horrible hateful murder! It would have been had it been any human being that had to suffer this way, no matter creed or color! Just senseless
He only said that because he was fearing ..all hell breaking loose in a race riot ..like him I'm glad that didn't happen .. innocent people would've been hurt on both sides ..I'm an old school Louisiana Creole ..met many old Southern White guys ..ninety eight percent of them were great guys and straight as a string ..Blacks ..Multi racial ..White ..or whatever race people identify with ..have a strange bond in the South ..it's strong ..though most would deny it .. traveled all over ..when southerners from different races meet somewhere away from home ..it's like you're talking to your first cousin ..or as we say in the Gulf Coast parishes of Louisiana CUZAN..👍🏼
Thank you Sheriff Rowles for being our American model of law enforcement. In this era of so much police brutality it feels good to see a person in your position with a basic sense of humanity. I saw a video of an elderly white lady with dementia being so brutalized by police they broke her arm and dislocated her shoulder. This happened weeks after the George Floyd incident. After seeing this doc I know there's still hope for us all.
My mom and grandparents live there grandpa was a deputy for the longest and retired and he would still go out on the search an rescues tell bout 3 or 4 years ago he stopped but he told us about this story and it was crazy and sad
If Sheriff Billy Rowles was still Sheriff, the case of Alfred Wright would've been solved too, I believe. He was a pretty honest man, maybe a tad naive back then. But, his heart was in right place and he's a humble man. RIP Mr. Byrd and Mr. Wright!!
@@tanyawilson3579that’s a ridiculous question. You’re judged by a jury of your peers. It was a mostly white jury from jasper. If they were like those evil sobs then the 3 would be walking the streets.
I'm raised in MS but Jasper TX will always be my home town I just hope things have gotten a little better when I come back home...my eyes are open since I saw the movie my grandma lived on the road on Huff Creek that's all I know when I come back home
@@josephalberta1145 It may appear over for the average! But after we have suffered no matter the cost....There is a great reward!!! Eyes haven't seen, nor have ears heard, nor have entered into the heart of man the things which God has prepared for those who love him. We preach forgiveness while feeling the burden of pain & suffering, BUT NOT QUESTIONING if God cares! We can never be fooled to believe GOD DOESN'T CARE! Lord have mercy, and forgiveness for ALL OF US! Grace be upon you & your household beloved✌🙏
@@dknohoward6933 Too bad the Bible isn't allowed in schools. Young people white and Black learn racist lifestyle from family friends, & music. Older people think they are able to say and do whatever they want racist or not. There are Christians that are racist
I truly agree there should be more executions and speedy trials. Our government is making a business out of this at the taxpayer`s expense. Prolonged grief and emotions for the survivors. The executions should be televised used as a precursor for the criminal element.
I grew up in Jasper and left well before Sheriff Rowles took over and all of this happened there. Even from afar, it's easy to see why he is so respected in East Texas. I don't know that anyone could have done a better job under those circumstances.
Check out the movie Jasper Texas. Sheriff Rowles help fast tracked the capture, conviction and death row placement of these convicts. I know him personally, this took a lot of toll on his personal health...
I mean the comment about hoping it was another black who committed this crime leaves a lot to be desired but I think he meant well + he seemed to really care about helping the Byrd family as much as possible. You have to remember that we were only 30 years passed the violence and racist past of the south. He obviously grew up in that time and I think he really is a decent man, you can't crucify him for that 1 comment because what I think he was trying to convey was we can't afford the possible blow back if say that the Klan was behind it which it kinda was, just nazi's instead. He really seems like he was a decent man who just misspoke. I get what he was trying to get across that Texas especially that part of Texas might explode because of the nature of the crime. Judge not lest He Be Judged
I think he said it because he didn't want to think that these kind of people still existed. I think he was ashamed or embarrassed t because people might think he agreed with the killers because he is white.
lots of small towns hidden away , ( in new waverly , texas i had a realy bad moment) just so god aweful unforgetable... my experience was very bad there, racist place , sundown town. (you have to be white to be treated with home town hospitality) and unless you walk in dark skin , or talk a different language or are of a different culture and or look different and dress different, (only then you would understand...) new waverly , texas is a very segregated town , which mainly is white people, Being mostly an all white population is not the problem ,and it would not be so bad , ( it just that if you are not the right color , you do not belong) that is the problem with racism..your guilty of being born different
i have lived in many small towns in texas , and that is not true. ( i live in texas all my life) i've lived in small farming and ranching towns , (where it's not all mainly white) and those towns are really different. ( hispanic and country black people are not so distant with others comming through town) , in fact they are kind and actualy say hello. ( like i said , ( its mainly the white populated towns that have a different take) wheather you accept it or not , racism is still a thing and very much still alive.

My mother taught at Lincoln High School in 1968 that was rather unheard of at that time she was living on what she'd cross over the tracks she said there were no black people I mean living on the side of town she lived on and then she crossed over to the side of town where she taught school and she'd be mad at me for not using punctuation I'm just using this real quick I'm so proud of her though for what she did and she did it she said they were prayer in the school at that time and there were no discipline problems everyone was what was really a difficult for everybody during the year Martin Luther King was shot and I'm very happy that she was a part of really American history as well as teaching English and history and she was also part of the civil rights movement because they told her a lot of people were watching her and I mean high up people federal government was seeing how her school year went and she was just saying okay okay they said no listen seriously a lot of people are watching to see how this goes cuz it was before integration was ordered by the state and she said it was a great year and some real proud of her for that
God forgive all if you mean it, and he knows it , if you do. He sent his only begotten son to actually die for our sin. God know everything that will happen before it do. God know if you are faking,, or if you are true. Forgiveness is a must in the heart of a person. It proves that the love of Jesus is an obedient need for a person to enter heaven. Jesus is the truth and the light, he is also the only way. People would rather serve the devil, the liar. Than to trust in God. Like I said before, I am preparing myself for an emortal life with my God, and all should do the same, before it's too late. God is a forgiving God, he know, if you are for real. God love the just, and the unjust we all have time to change, we're still alive aren't we? Yes we are, even though tomorrow isn't promised to us. We have to change now., We have to work on loving each others, and, and helping each others, and showing God that we care, and appreciate all that he does for us. Praise God, in Jesus name, amen.
I don't think they should have gave King Brewer the death penalty I think they should have been committed to a psychiatric hospital until they got better with the proper treatment they could have gotten better the death penalty is wrong two wrongs don't make a right
@Daniel Mock To conclude that one is not a Christian simply for stating "I doubt it" is nonsensical. If the vile racist murderer breathed his last with the same arrogant unrepentant heart as the first one then I too doubt he'll RIP. In fact, according to the Word of God there most certainly will be no restng in peace. Their everasting experience will be anything but peaceful. So says the Word!!!
Evil just like good has no Color, we already dying people there's no need to kill period, but Evil people has got to do, people are Human Beings and good intentions what and all we should have but different strokes for different folks.

I'm from UK. I remember this being reported, and I support the Death penalty on this case.
Well Mr Sheriff he never opened his eyes during the entire procedure...definance
what a decent decent sheriff, you cant help but like him. im sure the byrd family appreciated his work.
I know him personally for about 50 years and he's my neighbor. Great honest man, family man and former US Marine veteran.
Just reading the description of this crime on Wikipedia gave me mad chills. The victim suffered a horrendous death.
I did the same thing. It's a lot they don't say 🤔
Sheriff Rowles is a blueprint for law enforcement. Toughness and understanding all in one.
