The "Cursed Thread" of 2018

[Mamorien]

Edgar Ray Killen, a Ku Klux Klan organizer who planned and directed the murders of three civil rights activists participating in the Freedom Summer of 1964, died in prison on January 11.

He was found guilty of three counts of manslaughter in June 21, 2005, forty-one years after the crime had happened.

I'd consider that a borderline case in terms of "cursed" status. I mean, yes, any man's death diminishes me, but I for one find I can bear this particular diminution with enormous fortitude.
