    THE ATTORNEY GENERAL'S FIRST ANNUAL REPORT TO CONGRESS PURSUANT TO THE EMMETT TILL UNSOLVED CIVIL RIGHTS CRIME ACTOF 2007 APRIL 7,2009 This report is submitted pursuant to the Emmett Till Unsolved Civil Rights Crime Act of 2007, regarding the activities ofthe Department ofJustice (DOJ or the Department) under the Act. This initial report covers activities predating the Act, which was signed into law on October 7,2008, and the six months since its enactment.! 1. THE DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE'S EFFORTS TO INVESTIGATE AND PROSECUTE UNSOLVED CIVIL RIGHTS ERA HOMICIDES A. Overview and Background The Department of Justice fully supports the goals ofthe Emmett Till Unsolved Civil Rights Crime Act of2007. For more than 50 years, the Department of Justice has been instrumental in bringing justice to some ofthe nation's horrific civil rights era crimes. These crimes occurred during a terrible time in our nation's history when some people viewed their fellow Americans as inferior, and as threats, based only on the color of their skin. The Department of Justice believes that racially motivated murders from the civil rights era constitute L some of the greatest blemishes upon our history. As such, the Department stands ready to lend our assistance, expertise, and resources to assist in the investigation and possible prosecution of these matters. Unfortunately, federal jurisdiction over these historic cases is limited. The Ex Post Facto Clause of the Constitution and federal statutory law have limited the Department's ability to prosecute most civil rights era cases at the federal level. For example, two ofthe most important federal statutes that can be used to prosecute racially motivated homicides, 18 U.S.C.

  • The Arrow Senior Edition 2021
    The Arrow Senior Edition 2021 Thanks for the Memories By Kaylee Johnson & Stella Hahn When you go to the same school with the same people for both your junior high and high school years, you’re bound to have some pretty memorable times. Here are some of the best memories that members of the class of 2021 have had throughout their Tecumseh school experience. Payton Buse- It would either be setting a sectional record this season in swim or winning Homecoming King with Amber Sheets as Queen. Gracie Gogel- My best high school memory was the two years I got to go to the FFA National Convention with the other FFA members. COVID sadly took away these last two years of going, but the late night drives and all of the memories we made on those trips were some memories I will never forget. Simon Hahn- Mine would be our team beating Eastern Greene 6-0 this year during the sectional football game. Lydia Howe- It would probably be sophomore year Almost Anything Goes, because that was the year we won. Lane Patterson- My favorite memory was when I was in 7th grade at a school assembly when Mr. Paige rolled out on a “wrecking ball” but he was actually just on a yoga massage ball. Emma Scales- My favorite memory at Tecumseh was being on the swim team and having the opportunity to build good relationships with my teammates and coach. We always had a fun time together. Abby Teddleton- My favorite memory is when we were on the field and someone threw a bucket at me and I tried to stop it with my foot but instead my foot went all the way through the bucket.
