The state of Missouri is set to execute Marcellus, even though literally NO ONE with a stake in the outcome of the case—not even the prosecutor nor the victim’s family— wants him to die. Learn More Here
There is nothing I want to say that wouldn’t be illegal.
When our turn comes…

CNN — [Breaking news update, published at 7:18 p.m. ET]
Marcellus Williams, whose murder conviction was questioned by a prosecutor, died by lethal injection Tuesday evening in Missouri after the US Supreme Court denied a stay.
Cowardly country full of cutthroat murderers.
Genocidal, racist ass fucking pathetic excuse of a settler country.
the crimes of this guilty land etc etc
died by lethal injection
injection-involved shooting
RIP I hope somehow somewhere you are feeling the presence of justice denied to you in life.
After careful deliberation, the honorable ghouls of the Supremacist Court agreed that the State should hurry up and execute the innocent man already.
Prosecutor: I reject the death penalty
Victims family: I reject the death penalty
Judge: I don’t!
Isn’t there someone you didn’t forget to ask?
the Supreme KKKourt is allowing it: https://www.cbsnews.com/news/marcellus-williams-execution-supreme-court-stay-denied/
Then, hours before Williams was set to be executed, then-Gov. Eric Greitens called it off and appointed a panel of five retired judges to investigate the DNA evidence. The board, however, was dissolved by Parson in June 2023 and never issued its final report.
So the supreme court just declared the state can murder an innocent token to save it’s own face / ego.
They’re into that kind of thing
Herrera v. Collins, 506 U.S. 390 (1993), was a case in which the Supreme Court of the United States ruled by 6 votes to 3 that a claim of actual innocence does not entitle a petitioner to federal habeas corpus relief by way of the Eighth Amendment’s ban on cruel and unusual punishment.
Or, as the Onion has put it, “Supreme Court Overturns Right v. Wrong.”

For the comrades who want the 5-4 episode here you go:
Thank you, I did immediately think to relisten
They murdered him :(
Don’t even have words. It’s so cruel and senseless.
Need a graphic George Floyd replaced with Marcellus Williams. With the Missouri gov putting his knee on Williams neck looking smugly at the crowd watching him as his
lackeys inject poison with a speech bubble “I can’t breathe” above Williams. Supreme Court looking the other way.May the people behind this experience the mercy that they’ve shown.
i hope i can take a part in destroying this nation
28 minutes left…
The timer on the Innocence Project website (intentionally not linking it here because it is loading so slowly I assume they are getting slammed right now) shows two more hours for some reason
It is still showing 2hr and 40min for me. I think the webpage might just use your local time to compute it and not take into account time zones.
Must be. That’s surprisingly bad
Yeah, definitely that is the case. CNN is reporting that he was already executed 25 min ago.
Thank you for sharing. Extremely sad. Rest in Power, Marcellus Williams
So is the point of this murder just to murder a black man in a legal way?
Yep
I think that’s enough internet for today for me. I have nothing funny or clever to say about this and something inside me is still somehow shocked by such a level of petty murderous hatred.
Same. I have pretty much no words except for my hatred for this country.

Those of us with love for humanity will never really be able to internalize evil
This was a lynching, same exact shit as the klan hanging black men from a tree by a burning cross
A white person recently told me that systemic racism against POC doesn’t exist anymore and that the roles have reversed to white people being the truly oppressed race nowadays.At this point, I sincerely wish that were true…
Literally every chud believes this.
Oh no I can’t say the n-word anymore, truly I now know what slavery must have felt like.
“Okay, but have you considered that a POC called me a
, and nobody batted an eye when they did it? The fact that I can’t get the same degree of chill when I unleash some gamer speak means that anti-white racism is bringing us down on a grand, major systemic level.”
First the came for the hwites, and I did not speak up because its about fucking time
Preach that shit
I was braced for disappointment, but this story lead me to look up stats on Americans’ opinions on the death penalty, and it was worse than I thought.
The majority support the death penalty, even though the majority also believe that black people are disproportionately subjected to it, that it doesn’t deter serious crimes, and that there is risk of killing an innocent person. Americans are just that fucking bloodthirsty apparently, they can agree with you on all of the reasons why the death penalty should be abolished, and still turn around and support it.
Wow. I guess that’s what you get when you have generation after generation committing evil, racist acts for hundreds of years.
I’ve genuinely looped around to a point of assuming the same kernel of entitled evil that existed in the original pilgrims still germinates within settler spawn. Fuck all the kumbaya bullshit; there is unaddressed, both naturally in-bred and taught after the fact, evil in the white man and woman that can only be excised through self-awareness that most Amerikans will never attain.
It’s ideological within white supremacy, we’re not actually yakubian demons, but as a whole what’s the fucking difference when shit like this is allowed to happen
If you grow up under it you basically have to spend your whole life constantly fighting off bullshit the indoctrination did to your brains core processing. It’s evil
