1960s 1978 SPECIAL REPORT: "RACIAL CHURCH BOMBINGS"

Life

Cash was married to Myrtle Cash and had two children, Clem and Dale. He was a truck driver for Dixie-Ohio Express Company. Cash was a member of United Klans of America, a Ku Klux Klan organization.

Bombing role

Although officially named by the Federal Bureau of Investigation as a suspect as early as 1965, Cash was never formally charged with any crime. He maintained his innocence and passed a polygraph test given by the FBI. Acquaintances claimed that Cash was too nervous to be capable of committing a crime of the magnitude of the bombing.

Cash died in 1994 in Pinson, Alabama.
