Willie McGee (convict)
Willie McGee (died May 8, 1951) was a married African American man from Laurel, Mississippi, who was sentenced to death in 1945 for the rape of Willette Hawkins,〔("Willie McGee and the Travelling Electric Chair Radio" ), ''Radio Diaries,'' NPR, Retrieved 5 June 2010〕 a white housewife in town.〔(Alex Heard, "The Department of Forgetting: How an obscure FBI rule is ensuring the destruction of irreplaceable historical records" ), ''Slate''〕
McGee's legal case became a ''cause célèbre''.〔 The Civil Rights Congress handled McGee's defense and appeals; he had two new trials and stays of execution.
==Early life==
Willie McGee was born in Laurel, Mississippi, and attended local, segregated schools for a short time before starting to work as a youth. He married Eliza Jane Patton, April 15, 1935. McGee had four children with Patton, Willie Earl, Della, Gracie Lee and Mary. It is unclear if McGee ever married Rosalie, as she only appeared after the charges were filed and the date of the alleged marriage would have occurred while McGee and Patton were still married. 〔http://www.amazon.com/The-Eyes-Willie-McGee-Tragedy/dp/0061284165〕
