I pray that Marcellus Williams feels no pain and that he feels no fear. My heart hurts and I can’t say that the system failed him because the system was never created to save people who look like him. A system that perpetuates this is a system that should not exist.
A reminder that the previous Governor halted Marcellus's execution indefinitely and put together a group to examine his case and look at clemency. Parson dismantled that group and restarted the execution despite the Prosecuting Attorney's pleas. He should never know peace.
