A man on death row for nearly 30 years has been released because no crime even occurred.
The story still isn't over for Jimmie Duncan as the Louisiana Supreme Court reviews the case and is out on bail with a $150,000 bond.

Since 1973, at least 201 people on death row have been exonerated—meaning cleared of any responsibility for a crime. Eighteen of those people were in #Texas. A recent report reveals how racist the ultimate punishment really is: https://www.texasobserver.org/aclu-report-death-penalty-exonerations/

Today in Labor History November 27, 1835: James Pratt and John Smith were hanged in London, the last two people to be executed for sodomy in England. William Bonill, whose room it was, was transported to Australia as an accessory to the crime, where he died. They were convicted entirely on the testimony of the landlord, who had been spying on them through the keyhole. In 2017, they were posthumously pardoned under the Alan Turing Law, an amnesty law that pardoned British men who had previously been convicted of sodomy. The law was named for mathematician, cryptologist and computer scientist Alan Turing. Home Secretary, Lord Russell, argued for a commutation of the death sentences, stating: “It is the only crime where there is no injury done to any individual and in consequence it requires a very small expense to commit it in so private a manner and to take such precautions as shall render conviction impossible. It is also the only capital crime that is committed by rich men but owing to the circumstances I have mentioned they are never convicted.”

New from Michelle Pitcher: Pam Perillo doesn’t celebrate the fact that she walked free after expecting to be executed. She has no explanation for why she was spared, except that “God must still have a lot of work to do.” https://www.texasobserver.org/pam-perillo-women-death-row-community/

„The Specialized Criminal Court in Sanaa handed down the verdict on Saturday, according to the Houthi-run SABA news agency.
The people convicted were part of “espionage cells within a #spynetwork affiliated with the American, Israeli and Saudi intelligence,” said the court, which handed down a death sentence by firing squad in public.“
