Ken Foster, innocent, will be executed in Texas today

Although he is innocent, ten years ago Kenneth Foster was sentenced to death. If the state of Texas doesn't admit to its macabre mistake, on August 30th he will be executed, never having committed even the slightest crime.
YOU have the power to make that stop... or not to care.

  • The legal proceedings of the case have gone for ten years [wikipedia.org]. Quite a long time. From the above source, it appears that the real murderer, Mauriceo Brown (he admitted to the murder), was executed in 2006. Kenneth Forster was just the driver of the car, but the Texas court ruled that (from the link above) "there is no difference between the perpetrator of a crime and an accomplice when the accomplice had prior knowledge that the crime would happen".

    Please, not everyone lives in Texas. As sad as the execution is, the rest of the world can't do much about this.
