On July 25, 2009 the fifth annual reenactment of a violent lynching at Moore's Ford Bridge in Monroe, Ga. helped bring attention to the unsolved crime.

On July 25, 1946, two African-American couples and an unborn child were killed by a group of armed men, who riddled them with so many bullets that their bodies were practically unrecognizable. Some of the men are still believed to be living in Walton County.
