The night before, the 49-year-old African American, on the way home from a family reunion, had apparently hitched a ride on a truck with three white men. They drove him to a wooded area, where he was beaten, chained by his ankles to the pickup and dragged down the road for at least two miles, maybe three. His body fell to pieces. Among the remnants...
