if the day will come when we see some of these other mysteries cleared up. Like 9/11.


WASHINGTON (Jan. 25) - A former Mississippi (imagine that?) sheriff's
deputy was arrested Wednesday in the 1964 slayings of two black teenagers who were
long believed to have been kidnapped and killed by the Ku Klux Klan.

The former deputy, James Ford Seale, of Roxie, Miss., was named in a federal
indictment charging him in connection with the teens' disappearance and
deaths while they were hitchhiking in a rural area of the state east of Natchez.

Until recently, Seale was thought to be dead, and the investigation into the
two deaths had long been abandoned.

Seale was taken into custody Wednesday afternoon and was taken to Jackson,
Miss. He is expected to be arraigned Thursday on kidnapping charges stemming
from the May 1964 disappearances of Henry Dee and Charles Moore.

Two months after Dee and Moore disappeared, their bodies were pulled from
the Mississippi River as part of an FBI-led search for three civil rights
workers reported missing about 160 miles away near Philadelphia, Miss.

Federal authorities, who were focusing on the more famous "Mississippi
Burning" killings, turned the Dee and Moore case over to local authorities. A
short time later, a justice of the peace called an end to the inquiry without
presenting evidence to a grand jury.

Moore's older brother, Thomas Moore, worked with Canadian film producer
David Ridgen for two years piecing together what happened in 1964. The effort led
them to a brief confrontation with Seale, a former sheriff's deputy who had
been reported as deceased in several newspapers.

In 2000, the Justice Department's civil rights unit reopened the case, the
most recent in a string of civil rights-era killings that have been revived by
state and federal authorities in the South.

Moore and Ridgen, along with Dunn Lampton, the U.S. attorney who has led the
investigation in Mississippi, were traveling to Washington for a news
conference as early as Thursday with Attorney General Alberto Gonzales and FBI
Director Robert Mueller.

Reached by cell phone on his way to the capital, a crying Thomas Moore said:
"It's been a long journey, and I don't guess it could have happened any
other way."

"I hope and I believe that Charles Moore and Henry Dee are beginning to
smile," Thomas Moore said. "I'm hoping Charles Moore is saying I didn't let him
down."

Seale and another man, Charles Marcus Edwards, were first arrested in the
case in November 1964, four months after the bodies were found. At the time,
Seale was asked if he knew why he had been arrested. The FBI said he responded:
"Yes, but I'm not going to admit it. You are going to have to prove it."

Both men were reputed members of the Ku Klux Klan, which at the time was
cracking down on a rumored gunrunning operation by black Muslims in rural
Franklin County., Miss.

On May 2, 1964, according to federal docuмents, Seale offered the two black
hitchhikers a ride, then drove them to a wooded area where he and others
whipped them with bean poles. An informant later told the FBI that the Klansmen
took the unconscious men to the river, lashed their bodies to a Jeep engine
block and old railroad rails and dumped them, still breathing, into the muddy
water.

Edwards initially told federal investigators the two black men were alive
when he left them and he had nothing to do with any murders, according to FBI
docuмents. He later denied making the statement.

Edwards was not expected to face any new charges, although authorities did
not immediately say why.

The case is the latest long-dormat civil rights-era killing to be reopened
decades after the crimes were committed. The others include:

-A 1994 conviction in Mississippi of Byron de la Beckwith for the 1963
sniper killing of NAACP leader Medgar Evers.

-Bobby Frank Cherry, convicted in 2002 in Alabama of killing four black
girls in the bombing of a Birmingham church in 1963. In 2001, Thomas Blanton was
convicted in the church bombing.

-Edgar Ray Killen, an 80-year-old former Klansman, convicted of manslaughter
in June 2005 in the deaths of James Chaney, Andrew Goodman and Michael
Schwerner, the three civil rights workers who were killed near Philadelphia in
1964.

Wow, sort of. Like the things that come out about all revolutions and assasinations. But, justice? No not here, only in Heaven. Trintity, they do let us know the things they do. It is called the reveal and when that happens it is only to let us know how powerful they are and that there is nothing that we can do exept notice that more of our freedom and rights are gone. I read about these things in articles by Michael Hoffman II. And, if you read his stuff and watch the news or even movies you will see what I mean.
