FBI fault in Slaying sparks blame on crisis
Selma Alabama Sheriff Clark said there was a remote possibility the murder of Viola Liuzzo could have been averted if the FBI had advised local authorities. He cited a car and four Klansmen previously stopped and warned by state troopers, and questioned why the FBI did not inform Dallas County. The case involves Moton and four Klansmen charged after Liuzzo was shot on U S 80 near Lowndesboro. Clark denied ties to the Klan and noted his family’s trauma amid the national backlash.
