“He’s not some menacing figure. He’s just a regular dude. ... He’s had a lot of time to think about, to reflect on what’s gotten him to this point. He’s very clearly, very obviously regretful” - Lyndall, Richard Moore's son on why he wants to #SaveRichard

Here is a link to the cert petition Richard Moore's lawyers filed in the Supreme Court and the question he presented to SCOTUS in that petition. https://t.co/UrVzwGth1v @justice360sc @LindseySV @JBCornellLaw @NAACP_LDF @southerncenter @eji_org @SCADeathPenalty #SouthCarolina

Breaking: South Carolina just set an execution for Nov. 1.

Richard Moore now has to “pick” his execution method. In the past, he’s opted for firing squad.

This is from a statement by his @justice360sc lawyers, noting his all-white jury.

[Governor Kate Brown @OregonGovBrown]

Justice is not advanced by taking a life, and the state should not be in the business of executing people— even if a terrible crime placed them in prison. Today I am commuting all death sentences in Oregon to life without parole, so we no longer have anyone facing execution here.

#SouthCarolina Supreme Court issues temporary stay, halts state's plan for firing squad execution. https://t.co/H7pUtPDJ4I @YahooNews @AP @mchelleliu @justice360sc @LindseySV @JBCornellLaw @DPInfoCtr #RichardMoore #deathpenalty

[Robert Dunham @RDunhamDP]

Sigmon and Owens argue that #SouthCarolina cannot retroactively change the law on how executions are carried out. When they were sentenced to death, they knew they would be executed by lethal injection unless they opted for the electric chair. ... @DPInfoCtr #deathpenalty

[Craig Melvin @craigmelvin]

South Carolina is close to passing a bill that would add the firing squad to the list of the state's execution methods.

I spoke with the Alexandria Moore about how her dad, a death row inmate, may have to make this impossible choice. @MSNBC

[Justice 360 @justice360sc]

SC is scheduled to carry out its first execution in nearly a decade. Richard Moore faces a December 4th execution date, despite officials refusing to say if and how they will be able to obtain lethal injection drugs. Motions for a stay are pending. Follow our website for updates.

[Senator Zellnor Y. Myrie 麥瑞 @zellnor4ny]

Everyone has their own story about how they came to doing justice work and I want to share part of mine.

This is Richard Moore. He will be killed by the state of South Carolina on Dec 4. I worked on his case as part of the capital punishment clinic at Cornell Law School. 1/7

[Sister Helen Prejean @helenprejean]

All federal executions scheduled by the outgoing administration should be canceled immediately. The American people have spoken — the incoming administration has committed to abolishing the death penalty. Human lives shouldn’t be left in a political lame duck limbo.

[Pope Francis – ARCHIVE @Pontifex266Arch]

All Christians and people of good will are today called to work not only for the abolition of the death penalty in all its forms, but also to work for the improvement of prison conditions, out of respect for the human dignity of persons deprived of their freedom.

@meganromer Exactly. We can buy frozen foods and not fear power outages ruining it all!

@collins_neal @JordanForSC Thank you! This has been a giant suck on my husband's business. I'm glad to see change on its way! @MattBVann

[Raise The Age SC @raisetheagesc]

Today, Governor McMaster will decide whether to sign or veto the Raise the Age Proviso 67.14. Please contact him and let him know why it's important to #TreatKidsLikeKids and to fund programs to keep youth out of detention & jails. #ImplementRtASC https://t.co/JBQYITqDFm

We must confront our history to correct our current course. "[The death penalty] became, for all practical purposes, lynching’s stepchild." https://t.co/UJMcIpQ4Mt

[Justice 360 @justice360sc]

@justice360sc founder @JBCornellLaw and director @LindseySV wrote on the importance of confronting SC's shameful lynching history & the shadow it casts on today's death penalty.https://t.co/7pW9Ng6WlK

[Robert Dunham @RDunhamDP]

Proposed #SouthCarolina bill would shield execution-drug suppliers from public eye. https://t.co/7KuQ0zYyh5 @postandcourier @DPInfoCtr #deathpenalty

[Robert Dunham @RDunhamDP]

Turns out the "crisis" about #SouthCarolina not being able carry out an execution in December because they didn't have execution drugs was a PR stunt. https://t.co/BJrTUNxl61
