I write to you with a really heavy heart today. Because there’s a sad truth we have to acknowledge. Just hear me out, ok?
In 3 days, Julius Jones is scheduled to be executed.
The Oklahoma Pardon & Parole Board voted TWICE to commute his sentence to life with parole. But Governor Stitt is ignoring them completely.
What really makes my heart ache, though, is that this all could have been avoided from the start.
The District Attorney on this case, David Prater, could have freed Julius Jones with the stroke of a pen a long time ago. Instead, DA Prater has been hellbent on murdering Julius.
And if we had another DA in that office — one who was principled and understood that we need to rebuild our justice system — Julius would already be free.
We must work to elect DAs all across the country so that innocent people like Julius Jones are able to walk free. Please chip in to support Real Justice so we can elect candidates who will intervene in disastrous cases like Julius’ and save innocent lives.
After you’ve donated — or if you’re unable to chip in today — I need you to call key decision-makers in Julius’ case at 405-777-7840 and demand his freedom.
I know that this work is hard.
But it’s some of the most important work we will do in our lifetimes.
The work we do is — and I don’t think I can ever emphasize it enough — a matter of life or death.
Thank you for hearing me out. I appreciate you.
With love,
Shaun
