Man shows up at the ER with his unconscious 2-year-old. Nurses and police think he's suspicious — but it turns out they're misreading signs of autism. And now he may be executed despite new science pointing towards his possible innocence. themarshallproject.org/2023/09/15/tex…

People held in prison on remand waiting for trial - some of whom will be ACQUITTED - should not involve numbers like these: 2,500 people held for 6months+ 2,000 for 1year+ 150 for 5years+ Not fair on them. Not fair on victims. And not ‘tough on crime’. independent.co.uk/news/uk/home-n…

Kenneth Smith is scheduled to be executed by nitrogen gas inhalation (an untested, horrific method of execution) tomorrow 25 Jan. Here are a few things you should know.

Over a powerful dissent, a federal court has rejected Kenny Smith's challenge to being executed by nitrogen asphyxiation. The dissenting judge explained why tonight's scheduled execution in Alabama should not happen:

In reading Ivana's AL.com timeline on Kenny's scheduled execution you might like to consider the Complaint Joel Zivot MD, MA, JM & I submitted to the United Nations setting out the human rights violations in the case and execution bcu.ac.uk/law/research/c…

Dear Ambassador Hartley, Thank you so much for visiting my hometown of Birmingham, U.K. Could you please use your authority to encourage the state in your country where Birmingham is found to act humanely and stop the execution of Kenneth Smith? Kay Ivey #KennethSmith

It is now after hours at the U.S. Supreme Court. As of 5:45 p.m. Eastern, the Court has not yet ruled on today's stay application by Kenneth Smith. That's not a surprise, given that the 11th Circuit did not decide the issue until late yesterday. #Alabama #deathpenalty
