EXECUTION ALERT! JAMES BARBER

ALL LIFE IS SACRED!!

The governor’s office set a time frame for the execution of James Barber that will begin at midnight on July 20 and expire at 6 a.m. on July 21. The 30-hour window is designed to give the state prison system more time after two most recent executions were called off because of trouble with intravenous lines.

JAMES BARBER

Please contact Governor Kay Ivey and ask her to stay this execution and remind her of her statement that "all life is sacred!”

Suggested Talking Points

1. Mr. Barber has ineffective assistance of counsel claims at the penalty phase.
2. The AL DOC botched the last execution and the last 2 execution attempts yet refused an outside investigation.
3. Alabama is failing to reveal the expiration date of the execution drugs.
4. Alabama is failing to reveal the source of its execution drugs.
5. Alabama still uses a method of execution with drugs considered by some States to be in violation of the Constitution and ethically, morally wrong.
6. Alabama ought to delay all executions to allow for a thorough independent study of its capital punishment process and consider the serious objections raised as to how it administers the death penalty.
