Bond Case Sparks Racial Tensions In Nashville
The Wil Reid case at 2912 Ane Street saw Louise Spurlock accuse him of insult and grabbing her shoulder near Seventh and Race. Judge Yeatman set an initial $16,000 bond, later reduced to $1,000 at the defense’s request. Lawyer Quittman fought to free Reid as local Black residents condemn the high bond as preposterous amid ongoing racial tensions.
