   Next, America moved to the period of legalized lynching. It is   
   during this time that we moved from extrajudicial execution—   
   lynchings—to judicially enforced lynchings, also known as capital   
   punishment. Here, courts applied what is best described as   
   situational reasoning. If the accused was African American and the   
   victim white, the jury was entitled to draw the inference, based on   
   race alone, that he intended to rape her. This helps to explain very   
   troubling sentencing patterns. According to the U.S. Department of   
   Justice, between 1930 and 1972, 455 people were executed for rape,   
   and 405 of those were African American. Moreover, according to the   
   Wolfgang and Riedel study, African American defendants whose victims   
   were white were sentenced to death about 18 times more frequently   
   than defendants in any other racial combination of defendant and   
   victim. Notably, no white man has ever been executed in the U.S. for   
   the non-homicide rape of an African American woman or child.
