King and Denny Beating Trials
- Share via
Newspaper, television and radio coverage of the current King and Denny beating cases is scandalous. A test of strength between the lawless elements of our city and law enforcement is invited daily by the press, radio and television. Publicity seekers including law professors, the Rev. Jesse Jackson and certain lawyers make it clear that verdicts are expected in the court trials of these cases that will require further rioting to satisfy the misconception that burning and looting will correct social, racial injustice and poverty.
