Lynching of Jay Lynch

White man who was lynched in the U.S.

The lynching of Jay Lynch, age 28, took place in Lamar, Missouri, on May 28, 1919. That year had 83 lynchings in the United States. This was one of four against white men. The lynching of Lynch, a career criminal who had just received a life sentence after pleading to the murder of a police officer and his son, was a major factor in Missouri reinstating the death penalty, mainly to deter future lynchings.
