Proof that Bush** executed an innocent man?

Now would be a good time for proof that an innocent man was put to death during thatmotherfuckingfacistdeathmongerknownasShrub's tenure as Governor of Texas. The killing machine that he and Alberto Gonzales sure snuffed a lot of folks.

Has anyone proved that they were responsible for the death of a wrongly convicted person?

what do you have?

I have heard allegations, but I have no links, articles or notes.

Ah got nuthin'!

But I thought this would be a good time to ask.


Oh, here's the CT scan.

"Twenty-five Iraqi and Afghan war prisoners have died in US custody in the last 17 months, reports the Los Angeles Times.

Quoting senior defence officials, the Times said these included two Iraqi detainees who may have been murdered by Americans. Pentagon officials released few details of the 25 deaths, which they said were among 35 cases of possible instances of prisoner abuse by US soldiers, the article said.

The report comes in the wake of international uproar over the release of graphic pictures of naked detainees being abused by American soldiers at the Abu Ghraib prison near Baghdad.  White House officials revealed that US president George W Bush was informed about the allegations of abuse at Abu Ghraib in late December or early January, the Times said.

There also were suggestions that similar problems existed at facilities used to house Afghan war prisoners in 2001."

I for one count those murders as executions of innocent people.

because said person (on life support) lacked $$$$

interesting, I heard this "allegation" briefly mentioned by the corporate media in the last few days, but I haven't heard that they found their way to mention it during the Gonzales confirmation.

The Guv's Death Row Secrets
Naked City
BY JORDAN SMITH

July 11, 2003:


In the current edition of The Atlantic magazine, Alan Berlow writes about the content of the 57 executive clemency summaries of death row cases prepared by then-Gov. George W. Bush's general counsel, Alberto Gonzales, which Berlow obtained through Texas' open-records laws -- memos the state is now seemingly trying to keep out of the public's hands.

Gonzales -- the former Vinson and Elkins partner whom Bush subsequently appointed secretary of state and then a Texas Supreme Court justice, before asking him to come to Washington as his White House counsel -- is considered to be on Bush's short list of U.S. Supreme Court nominees. Back in Texas, as the guv's general counsel, Gonzales prepared clemency memos regarding Texas' death row cases for Bush to review prior to an inmate's execution -- memos that were, as Berlow writes, "Bush's primary source of information in deciding whether someone would live or die." In reviewing the memos, Berlow discovered that they contained a paltry amount of information "repeatedly to apprise the governor of the crucial issues in the cases at hand," such as "ineffective counsel, conflict of interest, mitigating evidence, even actual evidence of innocence." And so it went; Bush refused to stay executions in 56 of the 57 cases for which Berlow obtained memos.

Berlow wrote that although Gonzales intended the memos to remain confidential, he got them under the Texas Public Information Act. The governor's office fought disclosure, appealing Berlow's request to then-Attorney General John Cornyn for review -- an appeal Gov. Bush lost on June 23, 2000. In a letter to Assistant General Counsel Jack Hines, the AG's opinion read in part: "We have reviewed the submitted memorandum and find that it consists entirely of factual information," Assistant AG E. Joanna Fitzgerald wrote. "The memorandum contains no opinion or advice from the General Counsel, nor does it contain client confidences. Accordingly, the office may not withhold the memorandum."
