Just before the trial, while interviewing Mose Wright at his home, with Ebony and Jet photographer David Jackson, she witnessed a truck carrying six armed white men slow past the house. She has lived in Sweden for several years. Her husband, Lars Larsson died in 1988 and she remained in Sweden until the time of her death.
