Cecil Price

Cecil Ray Price (April 15, 1938 – May 6, 2001) was an American police officer and white supremacist. He was a participant in the murders of Chaney, Goodman, and Schwerner in 1964. At the time of the murders, Price was 26 years old and a deputy sheriff in Neshoba County, Mississippi. He was a member of the White Knights of the Ku Klux Klan.

While he was never charged with the murders, Price was convicted in October 1967 of violating the civil rights of the three victims. He was sentenced to a six-year prison term and served four and a half years at the Sandstone Federal Penitentiary in Minnesota. Following his release from prison, he returned to Philadelphia, Mississippi, and worked a variety of jobs. Cecil Price died following a fall from a piece of equipment at his job on May 6, 2001.
