Walter McMillian spent six years on death row between 1988 and 1993 for a crime he did not points out, McMillian shares a hometown with Harper Lee, and there are certain parallels between his case and Lee’s novel ‘To Kill a Mockingbird’. Perhaps the most damning point about this piece of trivia is how little the times had changed back then, and even to this day. Injustice continues to plague the American legal system, particularly for black inmates.
