While Singapore’s Ministry of Home Affairs (MHA) maintains a firm stance on the effectiveness of the death penalty in managing drug trafficking in Singapore, the article presents evidence suggesting that the methodologies and interpretations of these studies might not be as substantial as portrayed.

Texas Court of Criminal Appeals Denies Kenneth's Petition

The Save Kenneth Foster Campaign has officially entered emergency mode with the announcement that the Texas Court of Criminal Appeals has denied Kenneth's final appeal.

This outrageous decision shows yet again howbackward the Texas injustice system truly is. Now it is up to the Board of Pardons and Paroles and Governor Rick Perry to grant Kenneth clemency.

It is also a call to all of us to push harder than ever to SAVE KENNETH FOSTER!!!!

The State of Texas intends to execute Kenneth Foster on August 30, despite the fact that he did not murder anyone. Unlike any other state in this country, Texas utilizes a unique statute called the Law of Parties which allows the State to subject a person to death even though he did not kill, intend to kill, help or encourage anyone to do so.

Meanwhile, the Save Kenneth Foster, Jr. Campaign is definitely picking upsteam. We held a highly successful rally on June 21st in downtown Austin. The rally drew over 200 people who marched and heard from fantastic speakers and performers. Since then, media coverage has really picked up,with recent editorials in the Ft. Worth Star Telegram and the Austin American Statesman calling for clemency for Kenneth Foster, Jr. We have had radio coverage on Chuck D's show on Air America, Democracy Now, and more. We have much more planned in the coming weeks, so read below about how to get involved.
