Medgar Evers Family Viewing his Body
With her children, Myrlie Evers views the body of her husband, assassinated Civil Rights leader Medgar Evers, during his funeral in Jackson, Mississippi. Murder charges against suspect Byron de la Beckwith for the assassination of Medgar Evers were dropped after two trials ended in mistrial (Beckwith was eventually convicted of the crime in 1994).
