Alabama could execute Rocky Myers any day now – and he could be innocent. Governor Ivey must grant Rocky clemency and save him from wrongful
Somehow I’m just now finding out about Rocky Myers. I’m appalled but not surprised that this happened, especially in Alabama.
Rocky Myers is a black man with an intellectual disability and is currently sitting on death row for a crime he most likely didn’t do, and can’t take up law to help his own case like other inmates will do.
In short Rocky Myers was likely wrongfully convicted by an all white*aside from 1 black jury member* and was not given a fair trial at all, in fact he was referred to as a thug and a n****r by members of the jury. His lawyer majorly screwed him by just dipping out and not saying anything to anyone, therefore causing Rocky to miss the deadline to file the necessary paperwork for his next step. I don’t want this post to get too long so I’ll add a link for you to read if you want to read further into this. But please, sign the petition to help Rocky get his day in court.
