Please contact everyone below for… Continue

‘So Utterly Inhumane’

‘So Utterly Inhumane’

By BOB HERBERT

You have to believe that somebody really had it in for the Scott sisters, Jamie and Gladys. They have always insisted that they had nothing to do with a robbery that occurred near the small town of Forest, Miss., on Christmas Eve in 1993. It was not the kind of crime to cause a stir. No one was hurt and perhaps $11 was taken.

Jamie was 21 at the time and Gladys just 19. But what has… Continue

The reason I am fighting for CORI Reform is that CORI has been used to deny employment, public housing, loans and… Continue

FREDERICK BELL MISSISSIPPI DEATH ROW

In May 1991, 19-year-old Bell was charged for the robbery and murder of store clerk Bert Bell (no relation). He was tried, convicted and sentenced to death in 1993, largely because his trial attorneys failed to even investigate the case or conduct DNA testing beforehand.

Since 1993, Bell has sat caged in a prison cell on Mississippi's death row, denied access to the courts, despite newly discovered evidence that strongly suggests he… Continue
