MO Supreme Court to hear Nunley & Taylor Cases
This week on January 5 at 9 am, the Missouri Supreme Court will hear oral arguments by attorneys for Roderick Nunley and Michael Taylor. They are co-defendants in the 1989 murder of a Kansas City teen. The legal teams are challenging the death sentencing by a judge instead of a jury as mandated by a US Supreme Court ruling. The attorneys are requesting the sentences be commuted to life without parole.
Rick Clay Needs Your Support
Please call Governor Jay Nixon’s office and ask him to grant clemency to Richard Clay. Call the Governor at (573) 751-3222. The execution is scheduled for January 12, 2011 so the call needs to be made this week.
As in a number of death row cases, Clay’s case is rife with contradictions. Clay was convicted on the same kind of “evidence” that has Reggie on death row–no murder weapon was ever found, no DNA or other physical evidence was ever presented to the jury, no eyewitness testimony heard, etc. The case was prosecuted by Kenny Hulshof whose prosecutorial misconduct record is comparable to that of Nels Moss. We can’t send someone to their death on this kind of conviction!
“Enough Already!”
