SUMMARY:Wrongful Conviction: Juan Melendez
DESCRIPTION:Juan Roberto Meléndez-Colón spent almost 18 years in prison for a crime he did not commit before being exonerated in 2002. Meléndez-Colón\, who could not afford an attorney\, was convicted and sentenced to death within a week\, even though there was no physical evidence against him. Had it not been for the fortuitous discovery of a transcript of the taped confession of the real killer 16 years after Meléndez-Colón was sentenced to death\, he almost certainly would have been executed. \nWilliams Building\, Swimmer Hall\, Penn State Fayette

SUMMARY:The Right of Return x Represent Justice Experience
DESCRIPTION:The Right of Return x Represent Justice Experience is a pop-up art experience hosted at Eastern State Penitentiary. The Experience will center on the voices and experiences of those who have been the most impacted by incarceration and uncover important truths about the United States’ history of oppression. \nThe Right of Return Experience will feature a national cohort of predominantly formerly incarcerated artists from various disciplines. The featured works will lend themselves to a broad\, multifaceted response to mass incarceration\, using video\, sculpture\, painting\, photography\, commissioned installations\, poetry readings\, and performances. At its core\, the exhibition will aim to expand the possibilities of how art might respond to a lived experience of confinement and helps reaffirm a larger truth: vast and rich human potential\, artistic or otherwise\, is wasted when 2.3 million people are behind bars. \nThis exhibit will feature the work of: \nAmy Elkins (Parting Words)\nDaniel McCarthy Clifford (Section of Disapproved Books)\nDwayne Betts (Bastards of the Reagan Era (audio excerpts))\nSheri Crider (Flight)\nRussell Craig (The Real O.G.’s Series)\nJesse Krimes (Apokaluptein16389067:II)\nMary Baxter (Ain’t I Woman)\nTyler Held (Identity Control)\nDehanza Rogers (#BlackGirlhood)\nJess Perlitz (Chorus) \nEastern State Penitentiary has permanently installed the work of Jess Perlitz\, Jesse Krimes\, Tyler Held\, and Dehanza Rogers. Their work will remain installed after the exhibit has ended. \nStandard admission.

SUMMARY:A Grave Miscarriage of Justice
DESCRIPTION:DEATH ROW SURVIVOR JIMMY DENNIS TO SPEAK \nEaston\, PA – On Tuesday\, May 7\, Jimmy Dennis will share some of his experiences of the 25+ years that he spent on Pennsylvania’s death row. In what a federal court judge called “a grave miscarriage of justice” prosecutors kept evidence from the defense and allowed a witness to give testimony that they knew was false. The judge ruled that Dennis “was wrongfully convicted of murder and sentenced to die for a crime in all probability he did not commit.”  \nWhile Dennis was fighting to prove his innocence\, two Lafayette College students\, Emilie Henry (2019) and Andrew Keck (2016) became familiar with Jimmy’s case while interning with Pennsylvanians for Alternatives to the Death Penalty. They were so outraged by what they learned that they launched a statewide education campaign based on Jimmy’s story. “I’m so proud of the work that they did. It’s personal stories that change hearts and minds and Jimmy’s needed to be told.” Said Kathleen Lucas\, executive director of Pennsylvanians for Alternatives to the Death Penalty. Henry\, Keck\, and Dennis will be together for the first time at Tuesday’s event.  \nLast week\, Dennis joined legislators from both chambers and both sides of the aisle to advocate for the abolition of capital punishment in Pennsylvania. State Representatives Chris Rabb (D-Philadelphia) and Francis Ryan (R-Lebanon) along with Senators Katie Muth (D-Berks\, Chester\, Montgomery) and Sharif Street (D-Philadelphia) announced that they will be co-sponsoring a bill to end capital punishment.  \nSince 1976\, 165 people have been exonerated in the United States after being convicted and sentenced to death. A 2014 National Academy of Sciences study found that at least 4.1% of defendants sentenced to death in the United States are innocent. The actual number of innocent people who have been sentenced to death is likely much higher than the 165 who have been exonerated.  \nThe 2018 Report of the Task Force and Advisory Committee on Capital Punishment in Pennsylvania highlighted significant and systemic flaws with the Commonwealth’s death penalty system. Many of these had been identified in previous studies. Pennsylvania still fails to meet most of the American Bar Association’s recommended best practices in capital cases. \nThe event\, sponsored by the Lafayette Amnesty International student group and the Lafayette College Office of Religious and Spiritual Life\, is free and open to the public.

SUMMARY:An Examination of the Death Penalty
DESCRIPTION:We need to talk.\n\nJoin St. Paul’s United Church of Christ and PADP for an examination of the death penalty. We’ll be screening the documentary film\, “In the Executioner’s Shadow\,” sharing information about the death penalty in our state and nationally\, and engaging in Q&A. \n“In the Executioner’s Shadow” casts a penetrating look at the consequences of the death penalty through three powerful stories – the rare perspective of a former state executioner who comes within days of executing an innocent person; a Boston Marathon bombing victim who struggles to decide what justice really means; and the parents of a murder victim who choose to fight for the life of their daughter’s killer. As the battle to overturn capital punishment comes to a head in the U.S.\, this provocative film challenges viewers to question their deepest beliefs about justice. The film illuminates the oft-hidden realities entangled in death row\, the death penalty\, and the U.S. Justice system at large. \nSunday\,  March 17\, 2019\, from 4 – 7 PM\nSt. Paul’s United Church of Christ\n126 Williams Grove Rd. \nMechanicsburg\, PA \nhttps://www.eventbrite.com/e/an-examination-of-the-death-penalty-tickets-54440191077 Pizza will be served. RSVP so we’ll be sure to have enough to go around. \nThe breaking news out of California makes this the perfect time for this important conversation. Today\, Governor Gavin Newsom took the historic step of declaring a moratorium on executions in California. Four other states have a moratorium in place — Colorado\, Oregon\, Pennsylvania\, and Washington. The 737 California death row inmates represent over one-quarter of all those on death row in the United States. Just over four years ago\, Pennsylvania Governor Tom Wolf declared a moratorium on executions until any deficiencies identified by the recently-released state governmental study on capital punishment were resolved to his satisfaction. Governors Newsom and Wolf both pointed to concerns about racial bias\, unfairness\, inadequate defense counsel\, and the risk of executing an innocent person. Five people have been released from California’s death row due to innocence. In Pennsylvania\, that number is six. \nNationally\, two of the five largest death penalty states – California and Pennsylvania – have not executed anyone in more than a decade. Overall\, more than one-third of those now on death rows across the United States (34.1%) are incarcerated in states with gubernatorial moratoria — California\, Colorado\, Oregon\, Pennsylvania\, and Washington. \nThis latest moratorium illustrates the decaying state of capital punishment. The death penalty has been disappearing\, both in law and in practice\, from the United States. Ohio Governor Tom DeWine put executions on hold this month to prevent the state from participating in torture. Last year\, Washington State’s Supreme Court declared that the application of capital punishment in that state was unconstitutional.

SUMMARY:An Examination of the Death Penalty
DESCRIPTION:The Unitarian Church of Harrisburg and Pennsylvanians for Alternatives to the Death Penalty invite you to join us for An Examination of the Death Penalty.  The evening includes a documentary film screening\, an update on our state’s death penalty system\, and audience Q & A. This is a free event and open to the public. Please register in advance. \nIn the Executioner’s Shadow takes a penetrating look at the consequences of the death penalty through three powerful stories. A former state executioner comes within days of executing an innocent person; a Boston Marathon bombing victim struggles to decide what justice really means; the parents of a murder victim choose to fight for the life of their daughter’s killer. This film challenges viewers to question their deepest beliefs about justice. \nThe Study Commission and Advisory Council on Capital Punishment in Pennsylvania released its long-awaited report in June of 2018. It highlighted numerous systemic flaws in the administration of the death penalty\, including the risk of executing an innocent person. The committee’s analysis indicated that systemic problems with the death penalty persist\, including geographical disparities\, a lack of adequate representation for poor defendants\, and high costs to taxpayers. It’s time to take a closer look. \nLet’s talk about it.
