Emmett Till was fourteen years old when he was dragged from his home and was beaten and shot to death. other tortures were inflicted upon him before he died....but many are still up to spectulation. He definitely had his eyes gouged out,definitely was tied to a cotton gin or fan (idk what it's called exactly),and was thrown in some river or lake....his mother insisted upon an open-casket funeral to show the extent of what they'd done to her boy.
