British Woman on Death Row
Linda Carty is a fifty-year-old lady with British citizenship who’s on death row in the US. This from the BBC:
Carty, 50, was sentenced to death in 2002 for her part in abducting and killing a 25-year-old woman, but claims she was framed.
Regardless of whether she’s guilty or not, capital punishment is one of the most barbaric and contradictory forms of ‘justice’ that we have in the world today, and it needs to be stopped. There are appeals for Linda going on at the moment (see the Reprieve website) and of course efforts to stamp out capital punishment completely (for all the death row prisoners who don’t have a news story written about them).
Do what you can to support Linda.
