DeLaughter sees the ghosts?


In the scene where DeLaughter drives his jeep and stops in front of the old house where Medgar Evers had lived long ago, did the "ghosts" from the night of the murder, did they actually appear, or only to him? Was he just thinking how terrible that was?

I agree. He has read so much about the facts of the murder by that point when he walks into the real scene of the crime he just thinks about it, can see it in his head and that's how they showed it in the film.

When first assigned the case, they show him referring to Evers as the guy "who got himself shot". This scene shows the contrast, how he has been changed by working on this case, and recognizes the scope of the tragedy.

Imagining. It really hit him hard thinking about his own kids.
