This is when Karen Kelly and Walter McMillan met in a waffle house and they took a liking to eachother. "When her flirtations became more explicit, Walter hesitated, and then persuaded himself that no one would know." (stevenson, 23)

"Karen and Joe had been unhappy and were already planning a divorce. Now, Joe was threatening to take custody of their children and to "disgrace" her by exposing her relationship with a black man." (Stevenson,24)
NO INTERRACIAL RELATIONSHIPS!!
"Interracial sex and marrige were criminalized, and states throughout the south used anti- miscegenation laws to justify the forced sterilization of poor minoritiy women."(stevenson,25)

"The child custody proceedings and public scandal had taken a toll on her; she had started using drugs and seemed to fall apart. She began to associate with Ralph Myers, a white man with a badly disfigured face and a lengthy criminal record."(stevenson,28)
Sure why not I'm at rock bottom I don't care
Fine, I did murder Vicke Pittman but with the help of Karen Kelly and WALTER MCMILLAN, a black man.
Walter also killed Ronda Morrisson.
Walter Mcmillan is also responsible for the murder of Ronda Morrisson?
Do I belive this liar or not? let's put him to the test
"This time, he told the investigators that he had been involved in the murder of Vickie Pittman along with Karen Kelly- and her black boyfreind, Walter McMillan.But that wasn't all. He aslo told police that McMillan was responsible for the murder of Ronda Morrison,too." (stevenson,30)
FAKE
Hello best bud! Little note from the girlfreind!
CATCH THE MURDER! NOW SHERIFF (the people)
Excuse me, do I know you?
"According to witnesses,Walter seem confused both by Myers, a man he had never seen before, and the note itself." (stevenson,30) The public getting angry and the police getting desperate decided that Walter McMillan was to be blamed. Even though the only evidence they had was, he was in a interracial and was an African American man.
They don't know eachother. Oh what am I gonna do about the public, sould I just blame McMillan,casue he's black? Eh good enough!
