Do Not Execute Heliberto Chi!

On October 3, 2007, Texas is set to execute Heliberto Chi for the March
24 2001 murder of Armand Paliotta.

The state of Texas should not execute Chi for his role in this crime.
Executing Chi would violate the right to life as declared in the
Universal Declaration of Human Rights and constitute the ultimate cruel,
inhumane and degrading punishment.  Furthermore, Chi's attorney claims
that he was denied the right to contact the Honduran consulate which is a
right given to foreigners under the1963 Vienna Convention on consular
relations.

ACT NOW by contacting Gov. Rick Perry requesting that Heliberto Chi
execution be halted!

Do Not Execute Daniel Siebert!

The state of Alabama is set to execute Daniel Siebert on October 25 for
the 1986 murders of Sherri Weathers and her two children.

Alabama should not execute Siebert for his role in this crime.  Executing
Siebert would violate the right to life as declared in the Universal
Declaration of Human Rights and constitute the ultimate cruel, inhuman
and degrading punishment.  Furthermore, Siebert has filed an appeal to
the Supreme Court questioning Alabama's lethal injection protocol. In
addition Siebert has been diagnosed with pancreatic cancer which is
almost always fatal. He is stated to be in critical condition.
