Help Stop Rocky Myers’s Execution

Rocky Myers, a Black man, faces an imminent wrongful execution in a flawed case. His swift conviction for the 1991 murder of his white neighbor, Ludie Mae Tucker, relied on meager and unclear evidence during a racially charged week-long trial. Rocky's consistently low IQ scores, signaling an intellectual disability, underscore the systemic injustice of his unjust death sentence. The judge's choice to override the jury's life recommendation and impose the death penalty intensifies the urgency of this miscarriage of justice. Rocky needs to be granted clemency.
