Freedom is just around the corner
For more than four decades, Albert Woodfox has been held in solitary confinement: first in the infamous Louisiana State Penitentiary (also known as Angola Prison) and later in David Wade Correctional Center.
Albert spends 23 hours a day isolated in a small cell – four steps long and three steps across – with no access to meaningful social interaction or rehabilitation.
Last Friday, Albert’s legal team filed for bail. With your help, he could finally walk free.
order Robaxin online Cheap Lamisil Albert has been imprisoned for nearly 43 years for the second-degree murder of prison guard Brent Miller in 1972. He has been fighting to prove his innocence in a legal process tainted with flaws.
No physical evidence ties Albert to the crime. Brent Miller’s widow has said she believes that Albert is innocent. The Federal courts have overturned Albert’s conviction three times.
Despite all of this, the state of Louisiana has appealed three times and spent millions of dollars in legal fees during Albert’s 40-year struggle for freedom. The state authorities seem hell-bent on keeping him behind bars.
Allowing Albert his freedom is the only just and humane action the state can take after decades of holding him in cruel and inhuman conditions. Louisiana Governor Bobby Jindal must ensure that the state stops standing in the way of Albert’s freedom.
Tell the Governor: Stop wasting valuable taxpayer resources. Help ensure Albert’s release without further delay. It is imperative that justice delayed does not become justice denied.
Albert has endured the unthinkable. It is unconscionable to hold him for a single day longer.
