1887 murder of a Black man in Jamestown, Ohio

On June 12, 1887, Peter Betters was lynched by a small mob in Jamestown, Ohio following the brutal assault of Martha Thomas. The lynching was historically notable because both assault victim Martha Thomas and the perpetrator Peter Betters was Black, and because a mixed crowd of Black and White citizens joined to seek revenge for her injuries by murdering her accused attacker Peter Betters.
