#1 The final trial was the Columbia Race Riot trials, in which 25 black men were accused of rioting and attempting to murder white police officers in Columbia, Tennessee. The verdicts were stunning, and the national press had defined the riots as the first major racial confrontation following World War II.
#2 The atmosphere around the Columbia courthouse was becoming more volatile. A political cartoonist for the Pittsburgh Courier had been poking around the courthouse, and he believed that the telephone wires were tapped, which he reported back to Walter White, the executive secretary of the NAACP.
#3 In 1946, Marshall returned to Columbia to try the case. He was surrounded by white hostility, and the trial was long and difficult.
#4 A mob began to gather around town and outside the jail, and by late afternoon the sheriff was hearing talk that a group of men was planning to spring the Stephenson niggers out of the jail and hang them.
