An execution without transparency is an execution without accountability — and #ChadwickWillacy faces death tomorrow in Florida under a scheme shrouded in secrecy.
Call Gov. Ron DeSantis at (850) 717-9337 and demand he stops the execution ⇢ actionnetwork.org/petitions/st... #EndExecutions
#RodneyReed just lost big at the US Supreme Court. He has been requesting DNA testing for YEARS and with ruthless prosecutor, Lisa Tanner, at the State's helm, Texas is one step closer to killing an innocent man. #FreeRodneyReed

💪The fight to free #RockyMyers continues. We are grateful that Gov. Kay Ivey thought it was appropriate to grant clemency to him before he could be executed, but we can not let up until he is home.

If an execution is going to happen, there must be ZERO DOUBT. Right now, there’s plenty. That’s a risk no-one should feel comfortable taking.

🚨Tennessee plans to execute Tony Carruthers next month — their first execution of the year. But Tony says he’s innocent. Even someone involved in the crime has backed that up and named a different suspect.
So why won’t the State test the evidence?

The news broke Monday that the Knesset in Israel passed the law that would mandate death by hanging for Palestinians convicted of killing Israelis and would bar their rights to appeal. We have seen the deadly consequences that ensue when law discriminately targets certain groups of people. 💔

#JamesDuckett could be executed tomorrow for a crime he says he didn’t commit. The state forced DNA testing at a lab that couldn’t properly analyze the evidence — then admitted the lab his attorneys requested is the only one that can. The execution may move forward anyway.
The “Sunshine State” is casting a long shadow.
Our latest newsletter breaks down the alarming developments — and what you can do.
