Jeffery Lee was never sentenced to death by a jury. Instead, a judge disregarded the jury's sentence of life without parole and handed down a death sentence.
Please ask Alabama Gov. Ivey to respect the jury's decision before it's too late! actionnetwork.org/petitions/…

The Georgia Supreme Court has vacated a trial court injunction that had halted executions because the state had not yet complied with a COVID pandemic agreement establishing the conditions under which executions could resume. gasupreme.us/wp-content/uplo… @GFADP @uscedp #deathpenalty

The Georgia Supreme Court paved the way Tuesday for the state to move forward with the executions of nine death row inmates that had been paused under a Covid-related agreement. @Megwiththenews courthousenews.com/georgia-s…

An agreement halting the executions of nine Georgia inmates on death row during the coronavirus pandemic doesn’t protect them anymore, the Georgia Supreme Court just ruled.

The Georgia Supreme Court ruled that the state's pause on executions during the COVID-19 pandemic is no longer in effect.
This means Georgia can once again set execution dates for people on death row.

“We must take a hard look at the death penalty. The failures of this system will not stop with Edward Busby’s execution. They will end only when we decide it’s time to do away with the death penalty once and for all.” statesman.com/opinion/column… #txlege

Join our partners at DPAA to discuss the current status of the death penalty in Arizona, how they respond to the upcoming execution, and what action anyone can do today, tomorrow, and during the next legislative session to oppose future executions.
