George Stinney Jr.
George Stinney Jr. was a 14-year-old African American boy who became one of the youngest individuals to be executed in the United States, in 1944, due to a grave miscarriage of justice. Accused of murdering two white girls in South Carolina, his trial was marred by racial prejudice and a lack of proper legal representation, leading to his conviction based primarily on a coerced confession. Decades later, his conviction was overturned, highlighting the severe flaws in the judicial process that resulted in his wrongful execution.
