Lynching of Willie Earle

African American who was lynched in the U.S.

The lynching of Willie Earle took place in Greenville, South Carolina on February 16, 1947, when Earle, a 24-year-old black man, was arrested, taken from his jail cell and murdered. It is considered the last lynching to occur in South Carolina, although the racially-motivated murder of Betty Gardner by four white people in 1978 has also been described as a lynching.
