Urgent Action



STATE MOVES TO HAVE STAY OF EXECUTION LIFTED

The State of Alabama has asked the US Supreme Court to lift a stay of execution 
granted to Jeffrey Borden, and to be allowed to execute him before
midnight on 5 October. While the stay relates to a challenge to the state’s 
lethal injection protocol, Jeffrey Borden is said by his lawyers to have a
severe mental disability and to be “actively psychotic”.

Write a letter, send an email, call, fax or tweet:

  *  Call on the governor to stop this execution of Jeffrey Borden and to 
commute his death sentence;

  *  Note with deep concern the evidence of Jeffrey Borden’s serious mental 
disability;

  *  Explain that you are not seeking to downplay the seriousness of the crime 
or the suffering caused
