    Who Killed Paul Guihard ? Part 2

    Part 2 / final: “Beneath the Mississippi moon, somebody better investigate soon” When President Kennedy delivered the first sentence of his address to the nation in the early evening of September 30, 1962, “James Meredith is now in residence on the campus of the University of Mississippi”, he was not aware that US marshals who had come under attack from protesters all afternoon on campus had started to fire teargas. Soon a riot exploded on the scene, fueled by hundreds of segregationists who had come to Ole Miss from other states to “defend” it against enrolling its first African-American student. AFP reporter Paul Guihard and photographer Sammy Schulman split up to cover the unrest. They had no idea that Guihard would never return alive. The second episode of the podcast retraces the aftermath of the riot and Paul Guihard’s murder as well as the admission to Ole Miss of James Meredith. It also looks at the investigations of Paul Guihard’s death from 1962 to 2011, when his filed was closed by the US Department of Justice.
