Supreme Court Reverses Alabama Slaying Conviction
The Supreme Court reversed the death sentence of Johnny Coleman in the 1961 slaying of mechanic John D. Johnson in Eutaw Alabama. The unsigned opinion found evidence of racial discrimination in grand jury and jury selection, noting no Negroes served on the indicting or convicting juries and that few served on juries overall. Coleman had escaped from jail days before his 1962 conviction.

The ruling reaffirmed that public figures must prove actual malice to recover libel damages. The case related to AP reports on Walker’s activities at the University of Mississippi in 1962 during James Meredith’s enrollment unrest.
