The Lies of Carolyn Bryant Contributed to the Murder of Emmett Till — Where Is She Now?

Just a few days later, Carolyn’s husband returned house. When he discovered what occurred, he contacted his half-brother J.W., and the 2 kidnapped and murdered Emmett. The all-white jury declared them not responsible.

Finally, Carolyn divorced Roy and took their kids together with her. She remarried twice and by no means publicly spoke about Emmett Until once more — that’s, till 2007, when she spoke with Duke College senior analysis scholar, Timothy Tyson, who was writing a e book about Emmett Until.
