- Forensic evidence has never connected Mr. Carruthers to the crime, and his conviction relied almost entirely on the testimony of a jailhouse informant, who Mr. Carruthers’ counsel now knows was paid for his testimony.
Sadly the governor has just declared that he will not intervene only a day before the execution
So they are just gonna murder him with no decisive evidence?
Yeah pretty much, I wish I had something positive to say but no that’s pretty much it.
Fuck
Please upvote so this gets more attention
Well, its too late now. Fuck the death penalty.

so is he innocent or mentally incompetent?
The two aren’t mutually exclusive, and both should prevent the execution from moving forward.
(Leaving aside, of course, that the state being granted the right to execute people is horrific in the first place, and I’m already firmly against it)
What’s your point? That it’s fine he’s gonna be executed?
