Recy Taylor (born December 31, 1919) is an African American woman from Abbeville in Henry County, Alabama, USA. On September 3, 1944, she was kidnapped while leaving church and brutally gang-raped by six white men. Even though the men admitted the rape to authorities, two grand juries subsequently declined to indict the men, meaning no charges were ever brought against her six assailants.
