We are a group of Randy's friends' and loved ones' who are trying to save Randy from unjustly being put to death by the State of Texas for a crime he did not commit. Randy Halprin was sentenced to death on June 12, 2003 under the controversial Texas Law of Parties. This unjust law states that even though a co-defendant may NOT have participated in the crime or caused a death, he can still face the death penalty. It also states that he should have "anticipated" the crime. However, that would require the ability of a mind reader!

Why am I taking time out from Keane to visit death row prisoner Troy Davis? Because his case is a miscarriage of justice

VATICAN CITY (CNS) -- Emphasizing the importance of protecting human life, Pope Benedict XVI congratulated the government of Mexico for its decision in 2005 to eliminate the death penalty.

"One cannot insist enough on the fact that the right to life must be recognized fully," the pope said July 10 as he welcomed Hector Ling Altamirano as Mexico's new ambassador to the Holy See.
 

Dennis Skillicorn is scheduled to be executed in Missouri on 20 May. He was sentenced to death in 1996 for the murder of Richard Drummond in 1994.

On 23 August 1994, Richard Drummond stopped to help three men whose car had broken down just outside Kingdom City, Missouri. The three men, Allen Nicklasson, Tim DeGraffenreid and Dennis Skillicorn, had earlier burgled a house, and after they got into Richard Drummond's car, Allen Nicklasson pulled a gun on him. At gunpoint, Drummond drove his car to a secluded rural area, at which point Nicklasson led him into a field and shot him twice in the head. The body was found eight days later.
