National Coalition to Abolish the Death Penalty
URGENT EXECUTION ALERT!
Possible Innocent Facing Dec. 1 Execution
November 22, 2004
*****
Is Texas Nine Days from Wrongful Execution?
Frances Newton faces execution in Texas Dec. 1, despite resounding doubts
about her guilt.
Newton's case is a witches' brew of death penalty dysfunctions. Her trial
counsel was egregiously incompetent, she has a strong innocence claim and
her conviction rests largely on dubious tests conducted by the
now-discredited Houston Police Department crime lab.
Please help stop a miscarriage of justice!
