Woodrow Johnson, 40, a Florence, S C mechanic, said two men lured him from his home and drove him in a blue 1949 Ford, blindfolded him, and flogged him in front of about 25 bystanders before releasing him. He reported details consistent with earlier victims Robert Lee Gore and Clayton Selers, though Nance said no link is proven and the FBI joined the Gore case due to crossing a state line.
