Missourians to Abolish the Death Penalty

10/10/2026

The last few weeks have been particularly intense for our movement. This we wanted to take the opportunity to acknowledge recent proposals from the federal government to carry out the first public ex*****ons in nearly a century.

The last one was carried out right here in Missouri in 1937.

Will it help our movement? Will it hurt our movement? No one is quite sure, but it's a shocking proposal nonetheless.

Join the fight to end the death penalty in Missouri!

The Pentagon's move would allow the public to witness an ex*****on for the first time in almost a century.

This struggle is tough. It is heart breaking. It is enraging. It is traumatizing. But it's something we must continue to fight for. 🙏

Here’s the latest…

We are grateful Gov. Lee paused ex*****ons through the end of the year, but truthfully, this is an action he should have taken months ago.

This is not the first time Tennessee has struggled to carry out ex*****ons in recent years.

In a stunning twist of events, Tennessee failed to execute tonight - a second botched ex*****on (or attempt) this year.

The same physician who presided over the botched ex*****on of Tony Carruthers earlier this year, was also involved in tonight's fiasco.

After the first lethal dose of pentobarbital failed to kill Christa, they administered another. More than an hour later she was still alive. Emergency services showed up at the prison and hauled her off. It has been confirmed that she is STILL ALIVE.

It is unclear what comes next, if she'll ultimately survive, or what kind of impact receive two massive, deadly doses of the barbiturate will have on a living person.

TDOC officials closed the curtain to the witness chamber multiple times. Media reports that they could audibly still hear her breathing while curtains remained closed. Ultimately they were escorted out while it was clear Christa was still alive.

We will do our best to keep you informed on tonight's INSANE series of events.

Sad development for LeJames Norman, scheduled for ex*****on TONIGHT in Texas. No matter how LeJames got to death row, we affirm his worth as a human being. 💔
