<span>Blacks didn't get a fair deal in court because there were no black jurors, that meant that the jury was all white, and that kind of jury would not ever give a not guilty verdict to a black man, especially if a crime was committed against a white, it didn't matter how trashy and despicable the white guy was.
The jurors are from the country and not town to ensure that they were not "biased" against any of the parties involved.(they were from the town)</span><span>

Answer:
In Freak the Mighty, I did learn that Max's mom was killed.
Explanation:
As it turns out, Iggy is a friend of Max's father, Killer Kenny Kane, who is soon to be released from prison. For, it is not long afterwards that Marx finds a large hand on his face one night, and he is kidnapped. Back at the tenements, Kane ties up Max, who learns that the police are looking for his father. While he is gone, Loretta comes to untie Max, but Kenny returns too soon. He begins to strangle Loretta, and Max tries to stop him, even though he knows "no one can stop him." Unable to get Killer Kane to stop, Max screams out,
"I saw you kill Mom...I saw you do it! You killed her and I’ll never forget, not ever!"
Max was four and his father killed Annie, his wife, in the same manner that he tries to murder Loretto. After hearing Max, Kenny tries to then choke Max until little Freak comes and shoots from a squirt gun, vinegar and curry into Kenny's eyes.
