Protection of Freedom RidersDuring the first Freedom Ride, very little to nothing was done to protect the Freedom Riders. Local officials did nothing to stop the beatings and harassment. Attorney General Robert Kennedy sent an aid to attempt to calm the situation. Alabama State Highway Patrol escorted the bus from Birmingham to the Montgomery city limits, but violence broke out at the bus station; the Riders were brutally beaten without intervention from police. At that point, the Riders were protected by the State Police and National Guard and no more incidents of mob violence occurred; however, when the Riders arrived in Jackson, Mississippi, they were arrested and jailed.The protection for subsequent Freedom Riders was similar, with no local protection and spotty protection from state and federal government.
