Convict Kennard Told To Appeal Freedom Bid To High Court
Ne gro Clyde Kennard, 33, of Hattiesburg, must take his freedom plea from Mississippi state prison to the Mississippi Supreme Court after U S district judge Alien Cox ruled. Kennard contends racial exclusion in grand and trial juries violated his rights while serving a seven year term for theft linked to paying a man to steal chicken feed. The judge left open the path to federal review if the state court refuses or ignores a Supreme Court directive for a hearing. The state Supreme Court had previously said the claim was unfounded. A separate reference notes possible federal action over voter registration practices affecting jury lists and potential contempt proceedings against an official in Forest County.
