The Murder of Johnnie Mae Chappell
On a rainy night in March, 1864, civil unrest erupts in the streets of Jacksonville, Florida. Black Americans, sick and tired of the racist treatment, take to the streets to protest. The night would end with the death of a mother of 10 children and devoted wife, out not too far from her home looking for her wallet she lost on her way home to the grocery store. Her death, a result of the color of her skin.
This episode of Criminal Intent looks into the story of the investigation of Johnnie Mae Chappell and her family's continued quest for justice after 60 years.
