Kevin Cooper: Killing An Innocent Man

Dec 13th, 2010


Not Guilty!
In an Op-Ed by Nicholas Kristof from last week's NYTimes, it was reported that The State of California may well be preparing to execute a provably innocent human being:

"That's the view of five federal judges in a case involving Kevin Cooper, a black man in California who faces lethal injection next year for supposedly murdering a white family. The judges argue compellingly that he was framed by police.

Mr. Cooper's impending execution is so outrageous that it has produced a mutinyamong these federal circuit court judges, distinguished jurists just one notch below the United States Supreme Court. But the judicial process has run out for Mr. Cooper. Now it's up to Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger to decide whether to commute Mr. Cooper's sentence before leaving office."

Please be sure to read the full Op-Ed and the blistering dissent of the Ninth Circuit Court's refusal to rehear the case. The forensics alone point to collusion and conspiracy to frame Mr. Cooper.
