The Breakdown with Shaun King

Ep. 533 - I am gravely concerned they might actually execute Julius Jones.

Listen Later
We are now just 9 days away from the scheduled execution of Julius Jones. I honestly never thought we’d get here. The Oklahoma Board of Pardon and Parole has now ruled TWICE that Julius Jones should be removed from death row and that his sentence should be commuted to life with parole. But Governor Stitt of Oklahoma is ignoring his own board. I’ve never seen it in my life.

I need you to stop what you are doing and do 2 things for us please.

  1. Sign our super petition @ FreeJuliusJones.com - when you fill that out, it sends out emails to everybody involved in the case.
  2. Then, save this number in your phone as Julius Jones: 405-777-7840 and call it several times a day to demand that the Governor listen to his own board of pardon and parole. Our staff @GrassrootsLaw will be there to coach you through it.
