Three white men charged in James Byrd Jr dragging death
Jasper County Texas prosecutors charged Shawn Berry Lawrence Brewer and John King with murder in the dragging death of disabled Black man James Byrd Jr. The suspects tied Byrd to a pickup and dragged him two miles along a dirt road, sparking federal interest and possible hate crime ties. Police say Byrd was beaten, then chained to the vehicle and dragged. Investigators note possible Aryan Nation or Ku Klux Klan links while Byrd’s sister and father describe a beloved, active brother. The FBI is involved and death-penalty considerations hinge on proving a separate felony.
