On Nov. 2 at 6:30 p.m., five panelists will gather at Gonzaga University for a forum titled, "Can we afford the death penalty? The Loss of Compassion is too Costly."
“There are those of us who will not give up until the death penalty has ended, until this country is about saving lives and not killing people and throwing them away for making mistakes,” said Jason Baldwin to more than 100 people sitting on the rooftop of the Saranac Building on Saturday. Baldwin, one of the West Memphis Three, was released from prison 11 months ago after being incarcerated 18 years for a crime he didn’t commit.
