A 1965 AP report details Collie Leroy Wilkins Jr. described by a Detroit rights worker as the man who fired. Wilkins recounts his arm out the window as Eugene Thomas urged speed, and a woman driver glanced back.
FBI informant Gary Thomas Rowe testified about following Viola Liuzzo's car after the Selma march. He described Wilkins and others shooting at the car near Montgomery, with Rowe claiming he did not fire and was urged to shoot. He said he joined the Klan in 1960 at the FBI's request and provided corroborating details on the case.
