After being convicted in a highly publicized trial, Leo Frank's death sentence was commuted to life in prison by the governor of Georgia in 1915. However, a vigilante group abducted him from prison and lynched him later that year. His case drew national attention and is seen as a miscarriage of justice influenced by anti-Semitism and prejudice.
