, a devoted mother of ten, tragically lost her life at the hands of white supremacists while searching for her lost wallet on a听Jacksonville, Florida roadside. Her senseless murder shocked the conscience of the nation and fueled the ongoing civil rights fight in America. Though her life was cut short, her spirit of resilience and determination continues to inspire generations.

鈥淭here is not a day that goes by that I don鈥檛 think about what might have been had those racist killers not come upon my mother,鈥� said her son听Shelton Chappell. 鈥淚 was only a couple months old when her life was brutally taken, but the lasting trauma of that moment continues to reverberate. But on this day, the 60th anniversary of her death, it is a time for remembrance to celebrate her legacy and the family that carries her spirit with us everyday.鈥�

鈥淭he death of Mrs. Chappell is a towering loss to her family, community, and American society,鈥� said听Paula Johnson, director of the Cold Case Justice Initiative at Syracuse University. 鈥淭he Chappell family's commitment is a testament to their strength and is a profound lesson about the power of love and legacy. We have听been privileged to work with the Chappell family in their quest for racial justice and accountability. We look forward to continuing to work and walk with all Americans听to remember Mrs. Chappell, to help this story to be heard, and to bring about changes that are necessary.鈥�

鈥淢rs. Chappell was the tragic victim of a senseless shooting and a prejudiced and biased legal system,鈥� said family attorney听Robert Spohrer. 鈥淲e were honored to stand shoulder to shoulder as we petitioned the governor, the Department of Justice, and others. On this 60th anniversary of the passing of Johnnie Mae Chappelle, take some comfort in knowing that every potential legal avenue to reopen this case was pursued.鈥澨�
