Today is the 5th anniversary of Marlin Gray’s execution. We ask that you pause and reflect on the families affected by the Chain of Rocks Bridge tragedy. We encourage you to continue the struggle for justice and recommit to ending the death penalty in Missouri.
Executions are on hold in the Show-Me State. Last week the vigil still took place for Roderick Nunley who’s life was spared by the US Supreme Court. The High Court upheld the stay by a federal judge in Kansas City and the 8th Circuit of Appeals. Nunley’s lawyers had sought the delay after arguing that a jury, not a judge, should have determined Nunley’s sentence. The Missouri Supreme Court has set a hearing for Nunley in January 2011. We will keep you posted on any developments.
Signatures for Reggie’s clemency petitions are still being collected. Campus competition is high! Let’s keep it going.
“Enough Already!”
