The jury didn't care about whether he actually did it or not. At this point in time, the word of a black man were worth as much as a fleck of dust...nothing.

Theodore Roosevelt was the 26th president of the United States. He addresses this speech, <em>"</em><em>The Man with the Muck-Rake"</em><em> </em>in 1906.
