Do Not Execute Ronald Chambers!

Ronald Chambers was convicted of the April 1975 murder of Mike McMahan, but
he should not receive the death penalty for his role in this crime.
Chambers was only 20 years old at the time of the crime and had just become
a father.  He is now a grandfather, after having spent over 30 years on
death row, the longest time a person has sat on death row in the country.

ACT NOW by contacting Gov. Rick Perry requesting that he stop the execution
of Ronald Chambers!

Do Not Execute Marcus Reymond Robinson!

Marcus Reymond Robinson was sentenced to death for the July 1991 murder of
Eric Tornblom.  North Carolina should not execute Robinson for his role in
this crime.  He was barely 18 years old at the time of the crime, and would
be the youngest person to be executed by the state of North Carolina.  He
suffered severe beatings as a child and has a history of behavioral
problems.  His co-defendant did not receive a death sentence for his role in
the crime. 

ACT NOW by contacting Gov. Mike Easley requesting that Marcus Reymond
Robinson's execution be halted!
