Emmett Till Accuser Could Be Criminally Charged!

This is the most recent picture of the white woman who lied on Emmett Till.

Inside a Mississippi basement, a warrant was unearthed. The warrant was issued to the woman who accused Emmett Till of whistling at her. Her then husband and his half-brother kidnapped Emmett, shot him in the head, tied him to a cotton gin, pulled out his eyes, beat him to a pulp and then toss his corpse into the Tallahatchie River. They were acquitted of his murder by an all-white jury.

Mamie Till, the distraught mother of Emmett allowed Jet Magazine to take a photo of his corpse in a Chicago funeral home. The image captured the world's attention and sparked the Civil Rights Movement.

It lead to Dwight Eisenhower, John F. Kennedy and Lyndon B. Johnson to do something.

There's still no justice for Emmett Till.

The woman, known as Carolyn Bryant (now Domham) is living somewhere in America. She became a pariah after the trial. Matter of fact, she was a Karen before the name was term a pejorative. 

Now the Till family estate is hoping that Mississippi is willing to seek an arrest of the woman.

The Emmett Till Law was signed by President Joe Biden in 2022. It took a generation for this to happen though. Many times, Republicans have blocked it. Especially white nationalist Sen. Karen Paul (R-KY) who often held up votes when it came to civil rights.

Now the warrant addressed the name as --- Mrs. Roy Bryant -- her then husband and married name.

It was discovered by searchers inside a file folder placed in a box. It was inside the Leflore County courthouse. 

Now it is not really possible that the state could charge the woman. We don't know if she is still alive.

I mean if she still alive, it's going to be nearly impossible to send her to the county lockup.

But if they could sue the hell out of her and the estate, then Emmett Till can finally get the justice he deserves. 

Nonetheless, we must demand justice for Emmett Till. He was wrongfully killed for allegedly whistling at a white woman. His death is a tragic tale of being a young Black boy in the South.

Money, Mississippi is a forgotten town. It still exist and the old grocery store that Roy and Carolyn owned is destroyed. But the remains are still there and the state had made it a historical marker.
