Alabama plans to kill an innocent man on March 5 2020. That’s next month. Please share this!

THE PETITION: https://www.change.org/p/kay-ivey-it-s-not-too-late-to-save-nate-savenate-readthefacts?signed=true WOODS VS. THE STATE OF ALABAMA: https://law.justia.com/cases/alabama/court-of-appeals-criminal/2016/100695.html INFO: http://savenatewoods.secureserversites.net/

“Nathaniel “Nate” Woods is set to be executed by Alabama on March 5, 2020. There is no evidence that there was any plan or scheme to kill the 3 police officers who were murdered June 17, 2004. They were killed by one man acting alone, who confessed & has always said Nate was IN NO WAY involved. The triggerman was sentenced to life without parole by his jury, but the judge overrode and imposed death. Nate, who was tried by the same judge & prosecutors, was sentenced to die by a 10-2 jury vote on a flimsy theory of complicity. Nate & ALL WITNESSES who were with Nate before & during the shooting have always maintained his innocence. Nate surrendered to the police before the shooting began, saying “I give up. I give up” when one officer came at him with pepper spray. Defiance does not make one complicit in capital murder. Many injustices derailed Nate's trial, some of which only came to light in the past 2 weeks through efforts by Nate’s new pro bono counsel. Learn the facts: WITNESS & EVIDENCE TAMPERING: At least 2 key State’s witnesses were coached, intimidated & baited before their trial testimonies by the assistant DA, a detective & a so-called “memory expert.” Evidence was moved by the first-responding technician to hide that the police initiated aggression--what other evidence was tainted?? INCOMPETENT COUNSEL: Nate has been repeatedly & woefully let down by Court-appointed counsel. Nate’s trial attorneys were immensely underqualified. On appeal, Nate was abandoned NOT 2 BUT 3 TIMES. Because he missed some deadlines, the Courts can now ignore his case on a technicality—BUT THEY CAN REVIEW IT IF THEY CHOOSE TO. DISPROPORTIONATE SENTENCING: The State offered Nate a plea deal of a non-capital 20- to 25-years. Nate’s lawyers incorrectly told Nate he could not be convicted let alone executed since there was no evidence of a plan to kill or of Nate being in any way responsible for the shooting, so Nate rejected the plea. POLICE CORRUPTION: It was widely known in the surrounding community that 2 of the deceased officers accepted bribes from known drug dealers & planted drugs. One dealer who leased the apartment where the shooting occurred had stopped making his payments just a few weeks before the shooting. The officers were looking for any reason to get inside the apartment that day. WE NEED YOUR HELP! Complete these steps to ensure that justice is done for Nathaniel Woods. There is not much time! 1. READ MORE at savenate.com. 2. SIGN this petition (and comment in the link if you have any ideas or information). 3. SHARE via Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram. Without sharing we simply cannot get the exposure needed to stop this execution. #savenate #readthefacts 4. CALL or message Governor Kay Ivey (334-242-7100) and your State legislators. Let them know that you support Nathaniel Woods’s clemency or sentence commutation.”

PLEASE SPREAD THE WORD!

How does the court system convict, and subsequently execute, a man in this day and age despite the evidence stating clearly he was innocent? Why’d he die before the trigger man? What was the rush to kill #NathanielWoods? RIP. Ima need y’all to stop making excuses about racial disparities within the judicial system, and I’m not talking about one state, but overall. There are no buts. Oh and fuck Alabama. https://www.instagram.com/p/B9ZqU7blTTS/?igshid=55qk7h6qth28

Reposted from (katsuutv) Last night we lost a battle. The state of Alabama executed Nate Woods, a man who had reasonable doubt and new evidence. Today I am absolutely saddened and heartbroken. I woke up discouraged, outraged, disgusted, and ultimately feeling defeated that we lost this fight. The governor, Kaye Ivey, had her mind made up and refused to even take a call from one of the victim's sister!!! Did she not care that there was new evidence? Did she not care about her people? This is a modern day lynching and there is nothing that can be said to make this right. Nate, I'm sorry that we failed you. I'm sorry that your country failed you. I'm sorry that you even had to go through this. From the moment I read your story, my gut felt something for you. I instantly knew that there was no way this could've been on purpose. Although we never met, please know that I cared for you. We will not forget you. Not today. Not tomorrow. Not ever. #RIPNateWoods #NateWoods #NathanielWoods #friday #ripnathanielwoods #blackhistorymonth #bhm #lethalinjection #deathpenalty #kayeivey #alabama #rip #blacklife #blacknews #alabama #justicesystem #blacklivesmatter #smh #blackpride #whereisthejustice #flashbackfriday https://www.instagram.com/p/B9ZXStUH8HV/?igshid=15hlflwrend74

#NathanielWoods I am extremely sorry this country failed you. #NathanielWoods was murdered tonight by the state of Alabama. His "crime" was being in a home where a crime was committed by another person. The person even confessed. He was legally lynched by state order. We’re supposed to be thankful for a system that fails us? https://www.instagram.com/p/B9ZT96GA15y/?igshid=1xemzubj8e55e

This is absolutely disgusting. I really don’t understand why this continues to happen to innocent people. #NathanielWoods https://www.instagram.com/p/B9YN0OjpABe/?igshid=19zepv4mguay5

Tomorrow is the 5th.

Kay Ivey's office has not commented on the situation. 

This man will be murdered in front of his mother, likely in front of his other family members and friends, for a capital murder charge HE DOES NOT DESERVE. I'm calling it murder because that's exactly what it is. I don't care what "he wasn't on time for" or wth ever. Like that's a valid reason not to reopen his case? 

HE DID NOT KILL THE POLICE OFFICERS ON THAT DAY IN 2004. HE WAS NOT THE SHOOTER. BY ALL ACCOUNTS, NATHANIEL WOODS DID NOT COMMIT MURDER. YET THE STATE OF ALABAMA WILL MURDER THIS MAN TOMORROW. 

Why do I feel as if they can sleep well with the blood of an innocent man and the tears of his loved ones drenching their hands? 

“Alabama is slated to kill Nathaniel Woods via lethal injection on Thursday, March 5.

Alabama is slated to kill Nathaniel Woods via lethal injection on Thursday, March 5.

Hours after a federal judge denied a stay request in the upcoming execution of Alabama prisoner Nathaniel Woods, the son of Martin Luther King Jr. released an open letter to Gov. Kay Ivey asking her to intervene in the case. Woods is slated to be killed via lethal injection on Thursday for his capital murder convictions in the shooting deaths of three Birmingham police officers in June 2004. By all accounts, Woods was not the shooter and did not have a gun at the time of the shooting. Woods was instead convicted of capital murder, despite personally killing no one, as an accomplice to the actual shooter.”

“Killing this African American man, whose case appears to have been strongly mishandled by the courts, could produce an irreversible injustice," King said. "Are you willing to allow a potentially innocent man to be executed?"

At trial, prosecutors successfully argued Woods "conspired" with the shooter, Kerry Spencer, in killing the officers and was therefore equally culpable in their deaths. Spencer last month reiterated to the news outlet The Appeal that Woods was not involved and there "was no plan to kill the police."Woods' lawyers allege he received negligent legal advice at the time of his trial, when he rejected a plea deal after his trial counsel failed to explain the accomplice law. 

"Mr. Woods did not realize that the State of Alabama could convict him and pursue a death sentence on a theory of accomplice liability or aiding and abetting," 

lawyer J.D. Lloyd argued in a May 2019 federal habeas petition. "Instead, Mr. Woods erroneously believed — based on counsel’s advice ��� that the State would be required to prove that Mr. Woods pulled the trigger, thereby directly causing the officers’ deaths. Mr. Woods believed that Spencer’s admissions that Spencer was the shooter would preclude the State from pursuing a capital murder conviction and a death sentence against Mr. Woods. He was wrong. Had he known he was wrong, he would have accepted the State’s plea offer."

Martin Luther King III released the letter on social media channels Tuesday morning, writing he had attempted to speak to Ivey privately but had been denied. 

King is not the first to appeal to Ivey for action before Woods's execution date. Think big. Read local.

Days after the son of famed Alabama football player Bart Starr wrote an op-ed appealing for action, Starr's widow, Cherry Starr, wrote Ivey. "Governor Ivey, my family voted for you and knows you are a person of integrity and honor," Cherry Starr wrote. "No one in a fair justice system should be executed for a crime he did not commit. We have moved so far from the past where these types of judgements were disgracefully acceptable."

More than 68,000 people had signed a petition on Change.org on Tuesday afternoon to halt the execution. Ivey's office has not yet returned request for comment. 

Woods was convicted as an accomplice of the shooter, Spencer, who was awakened from a nap when the officers entered the west Birmingham home with an outstanding warrant for Woods. Prosecutors have not presented any evidence to show that Woods held or fired a gun during the incident, in which Officers Carlos Owen and Harley Chisholm died inside the home. A third officer, Charles Bennett, died outside the home after trying to radio for help. A fourth officer was wounded but survived. Spencer has testified he encountered the officers earlier in the day on June 17, where he felt the officers threatened him. Prosecutors in recent court filings allege Woods had previously yelled at Owen to "get off his property." Both Woods and Spencer admitted to selling drugs from the home, but Spencer maintains Woods was not involved in a conspiracy or plan to kill the officers that day. 

According to a witness at the original trial, the officers arrived at the house and talked with Woods about a domestic assault charge he was wanted on. Marquita McClure testified the officers ripped the "locked door off its hinges and rushed inside." “They jumped on him in the kitchen,” she said. “After that, everything happened so fast. ”Court documents filed by prosecutors in the 2019 request to set Woods' execution date state Woods "quickly surrendered" to officers after they entered.

Spencer, asleep on a living room sofa, was awakened by another man. McClure testified he grabbed a nearby rifle and shot after he saw an officer draw a gun. "By the time help arrived, the other three officers were dead," Assistant Attorney General Lauren Simpson wrote in a 2019 filing. "Officer Bennett was discovered with a smoking hole in his face, and Officers Owen and Chisolm were found in the apartment. Each had died from multiple gunshot wounds. "According to court documents, Spencer admitted that he opened fire in a "knee-jerk reaction" when he saw one of the officers holding a gun. In the original trial, Judge Sheldon Watkins denied a self defense argument because "these are police officers coming into a crack house," according to an Associated Press report. Woods was arrested as an accomplice after McClure initially told officers she had heard him "threaten to kill Owen" earlier in the day. In court documents, prosecutors state Woods was heard yelling "F--k the police" and "threatened to “f--k [Officer Owen] up." 

But at trial, McClure recanted, saying she didn't think the shooting was premeditated but she told investigators "what you wanted to hear."

Spencer was also convicted and sentenced to death in the killings. His execution date has not yet been set. 

Hypoxia argument

Woods' legal team last week argued in a Montgomery federal court hearing that the execution should be stayed to consider evidence that Alabama is "targeting" death row inmates who did not opt in to death by nitrogen hypoxia two years ago. In the federal complaint, Woods cites reporting by the Montgomery Advertiser regarding the nitrogen hypoxia opt-in period in June 2018. The Alabama Legislature months prior had officially approved death by nitrogen, a form of execution proponents had lobbied as more humane but which is still hypothetical: Despite several states adopting the method on paper, no state has implemented the actual execution method. 

More: In 2018, Alabama approved death by nitrogen for executions. When did it inform its inmates? The new law allowed the 174 men and women already condemned in Alabama could opt in within 30 dates of "the effective date of the act adding this language." The new law gave no language or process as to how an inmate could opt-in beyond informing the prison warden "in writing."Alabama officials say the election period was triggered on June 1, and they were not legally required to inform any inmate about the new option. Alabama corrections officials say Holman Warden Cynthia Stewart directed election forms to be distributed to her inmates. In a January 2019 sworn affidavit in federal court, Holman correctional officer Jeff Emberton said he handed out election forms in "mid-June" to every death row prisoner. But multiple death row prisoners and attorneys disputed this statement to the Advertiser, describing the opt-in period as chaos in the final week of June as death row inmates became aware of what was going on. Those not represented by federal defenders, who were able to secure last minute meetings with their clients, rushed to contact out-of-state attorneys or find any information on the new law. Prison officials say 51 people on death row opted into nitrogen hypoxia in June 2018. Woods' attorneys argued last week that the state withheld information from inmates that they didn't have an actual hypoxia execution method in place and therefore any prisoner who opted in to nitrogen hypoxia was receiving an indefinite, de facto stay of execution." The state created this situation to begin with," said attorney Marc Shapiro at the hearing. "The state cannot get up here and talk about how it has a timely interest in some inmate sentences and not the others."

Woods' team argued their case is supported by the case of Jarrod Taylor, a death row inmate who the state requested an execution date for last year, but abruptly withdrew their request when they realized Taylor had opted in for nitrogen hypoxia. “This case is about defendants (the state) forcing death-sentenced inmates to participate in their own executions, suppressing life-altering information from those inmates, and the Attorney General’s unconstitutional abuse of discretion by targeting for execution only those inmates who refused to participate in their own execution process,” the complaint states. State prosecutors argued that Woods had a local attorney who could have reasonably counseled Woods on the opt-in period. "The law did not require that a hypoxia protocol actually be in place at the time of the law’s enactment, much less that inmates be given a copy of said protocol," the state argued. "While the ADOC has been diligently working to formulate a safe hypoxia protocol, no state has yet executed an inmate via hypoxia, and these matters take time and careful consideration." 

A federal judge on Monday ruled against Woods, who appealed the decision in the 11th Circuit Court of Appeals on Tuesday morning. Barring a last minute intervention by Ivey or higher courts, Woods is scheduled to be executed at 6 p.m. on March 5.”

Reposted from (shaunking )🆘‼️🆘 I NEED ALL HANDS ON DECK at SaveNate.com. It’s Super Tuesday, and I know today is all about voting. I’ve campaigned all over the country with today in mind, but the only thing I can think about today is saving the life of NATE WOODS. He’s scheduled to be executed on THIS THURSDAY for crimes he did not commit. It’s an abomination. In 2004 he was convicted of capital murder, but never pulled the trigger, didn’t plan or participate in the murders, and didn’t help the man who did. The man who did openly says this. And always has. Police and prosecutors admit Nate never fired a single bullet. He wanted absolutely nothing to do with the crime. Yet here we are. They even offered Nate a plea deal back in 2004 and he’d be close to getting out now, but his lawyers advised him against it. HOW IN THE HELL can you offer a man a plea deal and still sentence him to death??? PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE go now to SaveNate.com, send a letter to the governor, and make phone calls for Nate.
