SAVE Innocent prisoners (USA)



Our campaign supports and educates on innocence claims in death penalty cases where:

1.   The prisoner maintains he is innocent of capital murder & fights for his life
2.   His
guilt may be based upon unclear evidence
3.   He has pen pals, supporters, or others ready to help


To date, over 20% if the prisoners we monitor have been exonerated, granted clemency, have had their conviction quashed, were granted a new trial or have had their execution stayed.

Please help us continue our work.
