Justice Department considers reinvestigation of Malcolm X assassination

On April 25, 2011, in civil rights movement, Malcolm X, by Jerry Mitchell
The U.S. Department of Justice is studying whether to reexamine the 1965 assassination of Malcolm X.


Malcolm X

Department spokesman Xochitl Hinojosa said Monday the department is reviewing “the request to open the Malcolm X murder. We decline further comment at this time.”

Alvin Sykes of Kansas City — architect of the Emmett Till Unsolved Civil Rights Crime Act who in an April 6 letter asked the Justice Department to review Malcolm X’s assassination — praised the department’s consideration.

He said he is hoping Attorney General Eric Holder will bring “more investigative resources and prosecutorial jurisdiction to credibly address the guilt or innocence of a broader net of past, present and potentially future suspects in this case.”
