Greetings!

Please use the information below to write a clemency letter to the Board of Pardons and Paroles on behalf of Cathy Henderson, whose execution is set for April 18 in Huntsville.

There are also two other executions this week in Texas. Vincent Gutierrez on March 28 and Roy Pippin on March 29. Pippin is on a hunger strike to protest living conditions on death row. They would be the 11th and 12th executions in the U.S. in 2007. All but one of the executions in the U.S. in 2007 have taken place in Texas.

Contact Governor Perry to Protest Each Execution

For anyone who wonders about stays on the day of an execution here is a number to call: TDCJ Public information---1-936-437-1303 ----just ask if the execution is still scheduled.

KVUE in Austin has some excellent coverage of last week's "Day of Innocence" rally and committee testimony. The link leads to a text page that contains a link to a video approximately two minutes long.
