Former FBI informant denies Cherry bomb claim in church blast case
Mary Frances Cunningham testified she never told the FBI she saw Bobby Frank Cherry plant the 1963 Sixteenth Street Baptist Church bomb, contradicting a 1964 FBI report. The case ties Cherry to the killings of four girls and centers on survivor Sarah Rudolph’s haunting account as prosecutors wrap their evidence.
