Original Note:
George Junius Stinney Jr. was a 14-year-old African American boy wrongly convicted and executed in 1944 in South Carolina. His conviction was overturned in 2014 due to lack of due process and racial prejudice, posthumously declaring him innocent. https://deathpenaltyinfo.org/news/pennsylvania-teen-exonerated-91-years-after-sham-trial-and-execution-on-racially-motivated-charges-that-he-had-murdered-a-white-woman
