SAVE RANDY HALPRIN FROM THE LETHAL INJECTION!!!

SAVE RANDY HALPRIN FROM THE LETHAL INJECTION!!!

Target:
Governor Rick Perry and the Texas Board of Pardons and Parole
We are a group of Randy's friends' and loved ones' who are trying to save Randy from unjustly being put to death by the State of Texas for a crime he did not commit. Randy Halprin was sentenced to death on June 12, 2003 under the controversial Texas Law of Parties. This unjust law states that even though a co-defendant may NOT have participated in the crime or caused a death, he can still face the death penalty. It also states that he should have "anticipated" the crime. However, that would require the ability of a mind reader!

Evidence is overwhelming that Randy was NOT a shooter. We have original statements from his co-defendants whom ALL state that Randy did not shoot. There is also recent testimony from three of the co-defendants re-affirming these facts and stating that had they been called to testify in Randy's trial on these issues, they would have. You can view those documents yourself.
ClICK HERE TO VIEW THE ACTUAL AFFIDAVITS

Randy did NOT receive a fair trial. There is evidence of prosecutorial misconduct. Clear evidence of abuse and abandonment from his childhood was not permitted to be heard as mitigating circumstances for his jury to consider. They also would not allow a key and crucial document created by the State of Texas that clearly shows Randy as the least dangerous of his co-defendants.

We implore you to write a letter to the Governor of Texas and the Texas Board of Pardons and Parole. We ask that you sign this petition. Our hope is that with enough support, these wrongs can be corrected. Thank you for showing your support!

Randy is only on Death Row because of an archaic law of parties. The perpetrator who actually committed the crime should be facing this sentence, but is not. It is time that we stand up for these ridiculous inequities in our laws and save innocent souls from an untimely death

Arya Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva, known as Kuan Yin is the bodhisattva who most embodies compassion. The name Avalokitesvara has its root meaning as "he who observes the sounds of the world". The great vow of Avalokitesvara is to listen to the supplications, and cries for help from those in difficulty in the world and to provide them with aid, whatever expedient means are needed to help people most effectively. Kuan Yin Bodhisattva, an emanation of Amida Buddha's compassion, is the "Regarder of the Cries of the World". Sometimes referred to in the West as the Goddess of Mercy. Prayers for help arise from thousands of hearts, and thousands of prayers are answered by her vow of eternal compassion: Beings in Samsara, who sail the ocean of suffering, She will guide and deliver safely to the ultimate shore of enlightenment Nīlakantha Dhāranī (The Blue Necked Dhāranī) Namo ratna-trayāya (Adoration of the triple Gem) [edit] I.

I have also been wrongfully accused and now a Convicted felon. Of course of something not as serious but I know how it feels to be accused of something you didn't do. Now, I am studying forensic psychology and that is where I got your name at.

The death penalty is outdated, barbaric and resolves nothing. It appeals to our lower instincts for revenge. That should not be the basis of a justice system.

I am appalled and horrified that in this age that there is such a law. We can never anticipate another persons thoughts or actions, unless they have specifically stated that they intend to do it. I am an Australian living in Australia and can only say that I am so glad that I live in a civilised country that does not have the death penalty. I ask you to please look hard into your conscience and stop this barbaric practice. We need to have respect for our fellow human beings. You do not fight aggression with aggression. This action is not going to bring the person who lost their life back to earth, it will only bring grief to Randy's family and continued torment to the family of the victim.
