The Isaiah Fountain Case Koper Joseph
The Isaiah Fountain Case: Outrage and Jim Crow Justice on Maryland's Eastern Shore is the first book-length account of a sensational rape case that convulsed Talbot County and made national news early in the 20th century. Fountain's attempts to mount a defense within the Jim Crow legal system included two trials and two appeals. Isaiah Fountain was a bold and resourceful African American whose struggle to prove his innocence of a White girl's rape was conducted in the face of lynch mobs, manhunts, outraged citizens, armed troops, media controversies, and questionable legal decisions.
When the legal system ultimately condemned him, he escaped a second time. When his life was threatened by lynchers, he weighed his options and escaped. Even after Fountain's execution by hanging, unresolved questions endured, creating still more controversies and surprises.
