Ex-Alabama trooper indicted in pivotal civil rights-era case

MARION, Alabama (AP) -- A former state trooper surrendered Thursday on a murder charge in the 1965 shooting death of a black man during a civil rights protest, a killing that led to the "Bloody Sunday" march and the passage of the Voting Rights Act.

Former trooper James Bonard Fowler, who contends he fired in self-defense in a struggle over a gun, was charged with first-degree and second-degree murder in the fatal shooting of 26-year-old Jimmie Lee Jackson.

The first-degree charge is for a killing that is intentional, while the second-degree charge is for one that is unintentional. Both carry a maximum penalty of life in prison.

Fowler, who is 73 and lives in Geneva in southeast Alabama, was allowed to remain free on a $250,000 property bond.


Is this what you are talking about? Yes, he should be refused service at area restaurants also. However, has he attempted to write a book entitled "I Didn't Kill this Man While I was a State Trooper, But if I did This is How I Did It"?
