As Governor of Texas, Rick Perry oversaw the execution of an innocent man.
But the media is failing to do its job and make Perry account for his role
in this terrible injustice.
The facts are pretty damning. Cameron Todd Willingham was executed for
intentionally starting a fire that killed his three children. But all six
of the outside experts who have reviewed the evidence of the Dec. 23, 1991
fire that killed the Willingham children have concluded that there is no
reason to think arson caused the fire.
In other words, Mr. Willingham was executed for a crime that never even
occurred.
And yet, in the Republican debates thus far, Rick Perry has gotten a free
pass about it.
I just signed a petition telling the media to confront Rick Perry in the
next debate about presiding over the execution of an innocent man.
I hope you do too. You can find out more about this issue and take action
