It's not too late to register for our webinar on “The Case for Universal Clemency in California” this Thursday, October 24, 2024, at noon Pacific, 3 p.m. Eastern. DPF President Mike Farrell will moderate the discussion with panelists Robert D. Bacon, Natasha Minsker, and Molly C. Sheahan. The conversation will focus on why Gov. Gavin Newsom must act now to grant clemency to the 620 people sentenced to death in California. Eight governors from all over the country have granted universal clemency, recognizing that it's an act of mercy. It's time for California to step up and do the same. We hope to see you there.

Ask Missouri Gov. Parson to stop this execution now! In less than one week, Missouri plans to execute Marcellus Williams, a man who is very likely innocent, as evidenced by the fact the St. Louis County prosecuting attorney reviewed the DNA results and filed a motion to vacate his conviction because he believed the DNA results proved by clear and convincing evidence that Mr. Williams did not commit this crime. Please sign the petition asking the governor to commute Marcellus's sentence, and stop this execution.
