Attorney General Charlie Crist tried to solve the 1951 murders of civil rights leader Harry T. Moore and his wife, Harriette. They were killed when a bomb tore apart their house in Mims on Christmas night 1951. Crist spent two years investigating the case. In August the best Crist could do is say that “extensive circumstantial evidence†points to a conspiracy by four members of the Ku Klux Klan, all of whom are long dead.
Steve Bousquet of the St. Pete Times (maybe the best political writer in the state) writes that Ben Green, widely regarded as an expert on Moore’s life and death, questions Crist’s  motive in investigating 1951 murders.
