.@GovStitt Oklahoma cannot execute an innocent man. Please save Julius Jones’ life and commute his sentence to life with the possibility of parole. #JusticeforJulius
I just wrote the Oklahoma Pardon & Parole Board, urging them not to execute Julius Jones, an innocent man on death row for a crime he did not commit.

1. Despite maintaining his innocence for 32 years #PervisPayne is scheduled to be executed by the state of Tennessee on Dec. 3. Recently his legal team discovered evidence hidden by the state of TN. @innocence has joined his team in filing a legal petition for DNA testing.
Our client #PervisPayne has always maintained his innocence. DNA testing of evidence previously hidden from his lawyers could prove what he's been saying for 32 years. Despite this, Pervis is scheduled to be executed in December. Will you fight for him? https://t.co/cIEp1kJq0H
The case against Julius was racially charged from the start. The victim was a white man and Julius is black. Even before Julius was arrested, Julius' picture was broadcast on the news and he was identified as the likely killer. He never had a chance. #JusticeforJulius
Police found NO PHYSICAL EVIDENCE connecting Julius to the murder, but a botched defense and now-discredited testimony put him on death row. #JusticeForJulius
Rev. Dunbar of Greater Cleaves Church in NE OKC is one of hundreds of faith leaders who has called on Parole Board Member Allen McCall to resign. McCall has threatened his colleagues who he sees as supportive of Julius and clearly cannot act impartially. https://t.co/MrJF0tsJQ8
#JusticeforJulius is grateful for the nearly 6 million people who has signed the petition at https://t.co/Yc8DH44Ymb to help set Julius free. https://t.co/Yc8DH44Ymb has been a great partner in our quest to gain support for Julius.
