JUSTICE FOR JARVIS - an Innocent Man on Death Row βš–οΈ

Jarvis Jay Masters is an innocent man who has spent the last 32 years on California’s death row, sentenced to die for a crime he did not commit.

While serving time for armed robberies (crimes committed as a teenager for which he has admitted guilt and long since served his full sentence), Jarvis was accused of fashioning the weapon that another San Quentin inmate used to kill a prison guard in 1985.
