Four Arrested in Christmas “Lynching”

Four men have been arrested in a bizarre Christmas day “lynching” in Indian Land, South Carolina. The victim was Ronnie Gene Wallace, 42, shown to the left.

Wallace was reportedly attacked and beaten with sticks and 2-by-4 boards by four Indian Land men.

The Wallace family live near the suspects and apparently had been feuding all day.
Arrested were Steven Ray Steen, 22; Marty Player, 24; Evan Starck, 28; and Shawn Starck, 33.

What is most interesting in these case is that fact that “lynching” in South Carolina does not require an actual lynching. Rather it is defined as an attack by a mob, which results in a death.
