Confusion Reigns In Sex Indictment
In Pontotoc Mississippi a white man named Thomas Hood was indicted on a felony miscegenation charge for sexual intercourse with an 18 year old Negro coed from Okolona. The grand jury heard a vague account with Hood described as a married man with three children and the woman attending a Negro junior college. Prosecutor Sweat and Sheriff Moore provided limited details, noting Hood may be in his mid or late 20s and that the alleged crime occurred in Hoods car during a Thanksgiving period. The case tests the 1960 miscegenation statute revisions and Hood is expected to be arraigned soon in circuit court.
