Tyrone Brooks, a veteran civil rights activist, walks through a historic African American cemetery where unknown graves are marked with white crosses and where one of the 1946 lynching victims is buried in Monroe, Ga., Thursday, Feb. 22, 2018. Law enforcement revisited the case in the 1990s after people came forward promising new information, though investigators said they still couldn't prosecute anyone. In June 2000, then-Gov. Roy Barnes ordered the Georgia Bureau of Investigation to reopen the case. That investigation closed in January and the bureau made public its redacted case file, including interviews, leads followed, case summaries and press clippings. (AP Photo/David Goldman)
