Bipolar Execution Victim in Texas: Adam Ward

We are discussing capital punishment at my Facebook page. I am an anti-DP advocate and believe executions must end in the USA. This is particularly true for mentally ill Americans like Adam Ward, a 33-year-old bipolar man who Texas executed on Tuesday, March 22. The Huffington Post recently ran a story entitled "Bernie Sanders Speaks Out Against The Death Penalty After Hillary Clinton Stands By It." Senator Sanders said, "I believe it is time for the United States of America to join almost every other Western, industrialized country on Earth in saying NO to the death penalty."

When people enter controversial comments on my Facebook page and stalkers prevent their names from linking in my response, I feel that my response is censored. Sometimes I then enter said responses in an article in this "Justice Gagged" blog. I learned long ago that the hackers work for executioners, racists, and Nazis. The people, organizations, and topics I was writing to or about when I was most harshly censored may be surprising, including the NAACP, the national adult vaccination plan, Christianity, and Michelle Obama. Anti-dp language is always certain to be censored, which is why I usually run a separate digital camera when dealing with that subject online. My films will be made available to purchase for a nominal fee at CreateSpace. Americans should know which subjects are considered exempt from free speech protections by elitist Nazis.

My response below to Terry Harris would not link her name, although I tried multiple times. See part of the conversation below. You can read the entire discussion at my Facebook page, link

Assistance to the Incarcerated Mentally Ill Define "everyone else," please, Terry Harris. Then please cite a case where a murderous #police officer or wealthy person was #executed in the USA. Thanks.

Make an immediate #humanrights  demand that no persons with diagnosed mental illnesses be executed in the USA. Make Adam Ward their last disabled victim. https://www.usa.gov/elected-officials MLJ

We congratulate Bernie Sanders, an anti-death penalty advocate, for our victories in Alaska, Washington, and Hawaii. We urge officials everywhere to say DEATH to the death penalty.

Last Meals: The Phillip Workman Execution

Adapted from a post on my MaryLovesJustice Facebook page
https://www.facebook.com/marylovesjustice

Phillip Workman, number 4 on this list, was probably a wrongly ‪#‎executed‬ Tennessee man https://youtu.be/GgOkgZXKAHo >>Workman TRIED to rob a Wendy's but ran when police were called. He hid underneath a car and said he saw a ‪#‎police‬ officer shoot the policeman who was killed. Both of the officers were attempting to apprehend Workman. I was told by a former Shelby County Corrections Officer, Sgt. Early Story, that the murdered policeman was hated by his coworkers after he crossed a picket line and that he died within his first week back on the street after having been temporarily detailed to work inside the jail for his own safety. Workman's supporters for retrial included the victim's daughter, who felt that Workman was innocent after hearing recantations by witnesses who claimed they had been coerced to give false testimony against Workman.

The embedded video, which is also available at the YouTube link above, is called "12 Craziest Last Meal Requests," showing what condemned men ordered for their last supper. Workman ordered a pizza to be given to a homeless person, but his request was not honored. He refused a last meal.



Workman was convicted largely because Dr. O.C. Smith, the ‪#‎Memphis‬ Shelby County medical examiner at the time, claimed the bullet trajectory showed that ONLY WORKMAN could have shot the policeman. Dr. Smith apparently tried to retract his testimony immediately before Workman's execution by kidnapping himself and strapping dynamite to his person and wrapping barbed wire around his head. Dr. Smith secured notes to his person saying "The doctor lied about bullet trajectory in the Workman trial." Dr. Smith was also the medical examiner when Larry Neal was murdered under secret arrest in the Shelby County Jail in 2003. Neal was a lifelong mentally ill heart patient and my brother. I wrote about Workman's case in the Wrongful Death of Larry Neal website http://www.wrongfuldeathoflarryneal.com/story/story03.html >> Dr. Smith had a history of possibly lying to assist murderous police, according to the Workman case. The medical examiner's office failed to conduct any inquest or give any information about why and how Larry Neal, a mentally ill heart patient, was held for 18 days of SECRET ARREST and killed behind bars. 

Dr. Smith was prosecuted by the feds for allegedly strapping DYNAMITE to his own person and staging a false kidnapping. The case ended in a hung jury and was not retried. This reportedly angered some U.S. Attorneys. The Memphis Flyer reported: 

"After the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms decided Smith was a suspect rather than a victim, he was indicted on federal charges. Terry Harris, who was then the U.S. attorney in Memphis, recused himself because the office had a professional relationship with the medical examiner. U.S. Attorney Bud Cummins of Little Rock came to Memphis to prosecute Smith. The trial ended in 2005 in a hung jury. Smith, who did not testify, was not retried." (Read more

Memphis authorities usually get a free pass, possibly because that is where civil rights icon Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. was assassinated in a conspiracy. Larry Neal's kidnapping and murder in Memphis Shelby County Jail has been denied investigation and his family has been denied due process of law, including responses to Freedom of Information Act requests, for over 12 years. The death of this American with disabilities was denied exposure by censorship to protect killers and due to fraud by The Cochran Firm, the Neal family's wrongful death attorney. See "Cochran Firm Fraud" http://CochranFirmFraud.blogspot.com

After Dr. Smith's antics, Workman won another hearing. Two ‪#‎Republican‬ judges came out of retirement to swing the vote against Workman in the hearing he was given after witnesses who recanted seemed to also include the State's star witness, the medical examiner. Workman was executed in 2007, and Dr. Smith is no longer the Shelby County medical examiner. I was told Dr. Smith then became an "expert witness" for America's corrupt courts.

More wrongfully convicted people were exonerated in 2015 than in other years, including people on death row. The only way to stop wrongful executions is to eliminate the death penalty.
