This is George Stinney. He is 14 years old.

by AuthorJustin Waddell

This is George Stinney. Executed in South Carolina on June 16, 1944, he is the youngest person executed by the United States in the 20th century. The only evidence against Stinney was a confession, which was obtained during an interrogation by several officers in a locked room. The jury deliberated for ten minutes.
