The goal of this petition is to make efforts to halt the individual executions scheduled for June and July. Each AND every person's voice DOES matter... so please help us with this fight and take a moment to sign the petition!
We the undersigned,
Hope that you take the time to at least read this letter in its entirety
before disregarding it. As you can see, this petition is signed by a
number of citizens both locally and nationally, as well as globally.
We have taken the time to bring our concerns to you, and at the very
least, hope and pray that you will at the very least hear our voices.
We are writing to ask you to please halt the following executions:
JUNE 2009 SCHEDULED EXECUTIONS
June 2, TERRY HANKINS, Texas (996 Person to be executed)
June 3, DANIEL WILSON, Ohio (997)
June 3, JAMES DELLINGER, Tennessee (998)
June 11, JACK TRAWICK, Alabama (999)
June 17, REGINALD CLEMONS, Missouri (1000)
JULY 2009 SCHEDULED EXECUTIONS
July 9, MICHAEL DELOZIER, Oklahoma (1001)
July 14, JOHN FAUTENBERRY, Ohio (1002)
July 16, KENNETH MOSLEY, Texas (1003)
July 21, MARVALLOUS KEENE, Ohio (1004)
July 23, RODERICK NEWTON, Texas (1005th person scheduled to be executed)
Regardless of whether you philosophically support the death penalty,
there are NUMEROUS reasons why the system is not working and should be
halted in its current state to avoid committing further injustices and
tragedies.
There will be a 2009 Death Penalty Report that is currently being put
together by: Abolish the Death Penalty Now!, which is a thorough,
extensive research/analysis of all these issues... you will be getting a
copy of this Report. At the very least, put off this execution until
you have had the time to read this report.
Please care enough about life and doing the right thing to consider this
request, do not bow to political pressures... but be willing to do the
right thing. Like someone once told me, It may not always easy to do
what's right, but it is ALWAYS right...
If you have any questions, email mailto:christie@abolishdeathpenaltynow.com.
On behalf of us all, and the sanctity of life, thank you.
