Absence of Prosecution

- 1899
- Where
- Tallulah
None of the white lynch mob was prosecuted, an outcome described as typical of the period, while the Italian government protested strongly to the United States.
As was typical in this period of frequent lynchings of Black US citizens, none of the white lynch mob was prosecuted. The victims were still citizens (nationals) of Italy, and their government protested strongly to the United States government about each lynching murder. No passage dates the non-prosecution beyond the year of the lynching.
