Sonny Burton Is Off Alabama Death Row. His Daughter Tells Her Story. Justice has long been as elusive as Bigfoot, Carolyn Amanda Shavers writes. But when Alabama’s governor spared her dad’s life, she caught a glimpse.

"It was so hard to wrap my head around it."

"My father didn't kill anyone or ask for anyone to be killed. And he got a death sentence."

"Meanwhile my mother's killer, Larry Green, stabbed two people, and he got life."

Pushing the #DeathPenalty for #HumanTrafficking also is part of a broader trend (for some ill-informed and for others cruelly, crassly, and politically motivated) to accept or manipulate myths about #HumanTrafficking to muster support for repressive policies.

A jury of your peers. Unless you're Black.

Because then those peers are deemed unintelligent or biased or just too different to be fair. And if your life is on the line? Even more reason to isolate you.

Masterful reporting from @mississippitoday.org👇🏽.

Missouri Man Said DNA Test Could Prove Innocence. He Was Executed Before a Court Ruled. Lance Shockley died by lethal injection last year. State courts have rejected prisoners' requests for DNA testing in recent years.

"Shockley, a man on death row in Missouri, wanted items from the crime scene to undergo DNA testing."

"[I]n Missouri, courts have made it particularly difficult to access that testing, even for those facing imminent execution."

Alabama governor grants clemency to death row inmate who was accomplice to murder, sparing him from execution this week | CNN The governor of Alabama has granted clemency to a man on death row for three decades, a rare move that spares the accomplice in a 1991 murder from execution on Thursday.

Don’t let this win go unnoticed in a time of perpetual setbacks. Today, the death penalty failed, and that is a cause for celebration.

Alabama death row inmate who didn't kill victim granted clemency Alabama Gov. Kay Ivey commuted the death sentence of Charles "Sonny" Burton, sparing the 75-year-old inmate from a scheduled execution on March 12.

Via NCR - Alabama death row inmate who didn't kill victim granted #clemency. Clemency decisions are rare in Alabama. Fewer than half of 1% of people sentenced to death in the state have received clemency.
