The d*ath penalty is too broken, too political, and too prone to abuse to be trusted. There is no room for misconduct when life is on the line.
THREAD🧵: When we talk about official misconduct in d*ath penalty cases, it’s not just about wrongful convictions. It goes way deeper than that. 👇

OPINION by Ja’han Jones:
“…the administration seems to be using the agency (FEMA) as a means to assist people and places seen as friendly to Trump — and to punish those that aren’t.”

“The days of public hangings are long gone, but executions are perhaps the most invasive government program in existence. The media is the eyes and ears of the public, and as such they should witness every moment of the process.”

💥 HUGE THANK YOU 💥 to our supporters who showed up outside yesterday’s hearing for #LuigiMangione in New York!
Your presence sent a loud and clear message: We oppose the federal government’s push for a d@ath s3ntence in this case.
"Brian Thompson's life did not matter more than the lives of regular people who were simply out shopping while Brown," Bonowitz said, urging the Justice Department to reconsider and seek an alternative punishment if Mangione is convicted.

@GovernorKayIvey
Commutes death sentence of #RockyMyers! Hats off to all who had a hand in this!
The governor said she doesn’t completely stand by Myers’ innocence claim, but she’s not positive he’s guilty, either.

The U.K. banned the export of drugs used in executions. Italy blocked production of a lethal injection drug. Now, some want Connecticut to take a similar step: making it illegal for businesses to sell drugs and equipment for use in executions elsewhere. boltsmag.org/connect...
