Byron De La Beckwith Jr. (November 9, 1920 – January 21, 2001) was an American from Greenwood, Mississippi known for the murder of civil rights leader Medgar Evers on June 12, 1963.

Byron De La Beckwith was a white supremacist and a member of the Ku Klux Klan.

In 1964, he was tried twice on a murder charge in Mississippi. The all-white male juries each ended in hung juries, and De La Beckwith went free. In 1994, based on new evidence, he was tried again. He was convicted of murder and sentenced to life in prison.
