Grand jury declines to indict Dawon policemen in Negro deaths

A federal grand jury in Macon Georgia declined to indict three Dawson officers Randolph Ennis McDonald Wyman Burchle Cherry and Edwin Harold Jones in the deaths of two Black men and the wounding of another. The cases, presented by Assistant District Attorney Joe Davis, were based on civil rights statutes. The town of Dawson with about 5000 residents faced months of race related tensions following the April and May incidents. The officers claimed self defense in each shooting and the coroner ruled the May shooting was in self defense. Civil rights leaders urged federal intervention as FBI agents were sent to investigate the Dawson situation.
