A US court will decide if a 14-year-old black boy executed for murder in 1944 was given a fair trial. A judge has been hearing from supporters of George Stinney, who say his conviction was pushed through a racist justice system, despite a lack of evidence. The bodies of 11-year-old Betty June Binniker and seven-year-old Mary Emma Thames were found in a ditch in the town of Alcolu, Soth Carolina in 1944. Within hours, 14-year-old George Stinney was arrested by police who claimed the teenager gave an oral confession, but there is no record of that. Al Jazeera's Alan Fisher reports.
