Did you know that incentivized informants are a leading cause of wrongful convictions, John?
The prosecution’s case against Marcellus was based entirely on the unreliable testimony of two incentivized witnesses, both of whom were motivated by being promised leniency in their own criminal cases and a $5,000 reward.
CALL GOV. PARSON
Just last week, Circuit Judge Bruce Hilton declined the motion to vacate Marcellus’ conviction and decided to move forward with the Sept. 24 execution.
But the fight for Marcellus’ life and exoneration isn’t over. Now more than ever, we need to urge Gov. Parson to stop the execution.
John: With only six days until Marcellus Williams’ execution on Sept. 24, we’re counting on grassroots supporters like you to call Gov. Parson and urge him to stop Missouri from making an irreversible mistake. ACT NOW, CALL 417-373-3400.
CALL NOW
