Over at MississippiPolitical.com, C.W. is reporting about a memorial service to be held in Meadville on Memorial Day. The families of Henry Dee and Charles Moore will replace the memorial that Thomas Moore originally put up there on our original trip in July 2005, then had replaced a few months later after it was torn down (which Kate Medley and I covered and helped facilitate on Thomas' behalf then). That sign was torn down in January 2007 after the indictments were announced.
We also appreciate that C.W. is calling out the JFP's work on this story, as many people at this point would like to forget the role that native Mississippians played in bringing this case back on the radar. Thanks, C.W., for setting the historical record straight. ;-)

Great job, C.W. I'm also glad to hear that Hollis Watkins will be back there again.

C.W., L.W., A&W Root Beer...whatever. :-) I read about the postponement on the Web site.

Hi, guys, I missed this! I just now saw it when I came in to check to see if there was anything on the blog yet about the first day of the trial. I tried to get the facts straight - if I missed something, someone please let me know. I was really looking forward to going to the setting of the memorial, and I have no idea why it was postponed, but hope it's not due to anyone's poor health, or anything but better timing later.

WJTV says that Moore is waiting until after the trial.

I wondered if that was it, but the person giving out the information (not Mr. Moore) seems to be a bit reluctant to divulge anything more than absolutely necessary.
