Leo Frank was the only Jew ever lynched in America. He was arrested, tried and conviced of murdering a 13 year old girl named Mary Phagan. Some say he was innocent and some say he was guilty but whatever the case was he should not have been lynched.

I know that justice in some aprt of the US in the last century had been severe and peoples were hanged by what can call "justice of the crowd", but it is the first time I hear of somebody *snacked* by a crowd.
OK you might have meant lynched not lunched :P.

When it comes to famous trials, Doug Linder's site is always a good read.
He covers the Leo Frank case here. (http://www.law.umkc.edu/faculty/projects/ftrials/frank/frankaccount.html)
