In this post, I mentioned that Cory Maye’s family was denied access to him in jail after the raid. I didn’t specify how long they were denied access to him because I wasn’t sure. Just heard from Maye’s mother that it was two weeks. Even then, they were only permitted to see him after appealing to the mayor of Hattiesburg. It’s feels crude to do so, but it’s probably (and unfortunately) pertinent to note that the mayor of Hattiesburg is black.
