BREAKING: After spending the past 20 years fighting for his life on death row, Oklahoma Gov. Kevin Stitt commuted Julius Jones' sentence to life without the possibility of parole the day Jones was scheduled to be executed. https://t.co/jwxmhEobZh
I woke up around 4:00 am with #rodneyreed heavy on my mind. Yesterday was closing arguments and Judge Langley is expected to make his recommendation before Halloween. A new trial will give Rodney a real chance to prove he is #innocent.
Someone told me I would lose clients for posting some of the things i do. I just said, βI donβt accept offers from bigots or racists.β
Then I followed up with, βI also donβt take advice from people who stay silent out of greed and ignorance.β
I said what I said and I meant it!
Imagine if Texas Republicans attacked white supremacy with the same energy they attacked our right to vote, our education system, and our constitutional rights.
Yesterday was day 7 and today is day 8 of the hearing in #Bastrop#Texas. Big shout out to @MerrittForTexas for speaking out in support of #RodneyReed at the rally the Saturday before the hearing began. #PowerfulWords of support and inspiration were said.
