#CharlesRayFinch spent 43 YEARS on NC death row for a crime he didn't commit! He is exonerated 166. He was wrongfully convicted because of false forensic testimony and an eyewitness identification manipulated by police misconduct. #EndTheDeathPenalty
It’s very true! The clock is ticking & the time to fight is short! But there is time to sign the circulating petition, write the Texas Board of Pardons and Paroles, and Tweet! Make sure everyone you know...knows #QuintinJones Tag @GovAbbott Let him know the DP is wrong!
#JusticeForDarinBrusiter Darin has been trying to withdraw his guilty plea that stemmed from a false confession as a result of coercive police conduct. He is now serving 33 to Life for a crime he has maintained his innocence for since 2011. https://t.co/Saj2isCLNb
#PaulBrowning spent 33 years on Nevada death row for a crime he didn't commit. He is exonerated 168: "Being in there that long, you see a lot of things that affect you. Now I just want to find a little bit of peace after coming through all this madness." #EndTheDeathPenalty
Wow this article...so sad how the prisons in the US have got away with inhumane treatment of people for years. How many more lawsuits, deaths, and mental health meltdowns before they change? #endSolitaryConfinement
"Solitary confinement puts all prisoners at significant risk of serious psychological and even physical harm. Prisoners with pre-existing vulnerabilities, such as mental illness, are at greatest risk." Professor Craig Haney @ucsc https://t.co/ypHOdw5PNF
I HAVE A DREAM
That one day all humans incarcerated will find ways to reconciliation
That tortures of prison will be replaced with avenues for redemption
And just as insiders need forgiveness, the world’s citizens need
forgiveness for the treatment of souls behind bars
BREAKING: New Mexico is now the second state to ban qualified immunity — a major step toward increasing police accountability and preventing wrongful convictions. https://t.co/fdEEWRHc39
@cellsecrets Keep sending is my personal opinion but legally speaking some states have anti harassment laws that say if someone said to stop communication and you continue it's harassment. So check that
#MelissaLucio is in danger! She could get a date for #Execution. We must cont. to draw attention to her case! We need someone with some clout to take up this agenda & get Melissa home to her family! 11 years in prison for a crime she did not commit is too long! @SusanSarandon
STAY OF EXECUTION until Feb 16 granted to #WillieSmith. The stay was ordered so that Mr.Smith's intellectual disability claim can be reviewed. HOWEVER pls keep calling @GovernorKayIvey ask her to grant clemency to a man who shouldn't have been sentenced to death! #StopExecutions
We have been notified an officer in LeCi is harassing & threatening people. He aggressively beat someone on Saturday. Many filed complaints but have been retaliated against. If anyone can help call them to inquire why he continues to work at that unit, let me know.
The US Supreme Court decision was 6-3 in favor of Lisa Montgomery’s execution tonight.
Remember we’re talking about Justice Ginsburg’s “pro-life” replacement Amy Coney Barrett, and Clarence Thomas—who’s wife Ginni Thomas allegedly funded 80+ buses to the Capitol attacks.
Just had to go through a metal detector before entering the House floor. Some colleagues are frustrated (guess which ones) by this requirement. Now they know how HS students in my district feel. Suck it up buttercups. Y’all brought this on yourselves.
