Do Not Execute James Lee Clark!

 

The state of Texas should not execute James Lee Clark for his role in the
murder of Shari Catherine Crews.  In June 2002, the Supreme Court ruled in
Atkins v. Virginia that the state cannot execute someone who is mentally
retarded.  Several experts have found Clark's IQ to be under 70, thus
fitting the definition of mental retardation.

 

ACT NOW by contacting Gov. Rick Perry requesting that he stop the execution
of James Lee Clark!

Do Not Execute Ryan Dickson!

 

The state of Texas is scheduled to execute Ryan Dickson on April 26 for the
1994 murders of Carmelo and Marie Surace.

 

There is a question as to whether or not a juror in the trial phase withheld
information about prior knowledge of the case.  Furthermore, the trial judge
has stated that he believes Dickson deserves a new trial due to evidence
that the prosecution withheld.

 

ACT NOW by contacting Gov. Rick Perry requesting that Ryan Dickson's
execution be halted!
