Time is running out for Rocky Myers

Your 2X matched gift can help save a life [View in Browser]( [Giving Tuesday Match: Offer Ends Tomorrow]( {NAME}: we must prevent the execution of Rocky Myers. Rocky’s conviction is so deeply flawed, it’s mind boggling. No forensic evidence was found linking him to the murder. Witnesses were pressured by the police to change their stories. The judge overruled the jury’s original decision of life imprisonment. For almost 30 years now, grave injustices have trapped Rocky on death row, and now he could be one of the next people to be executed by gas asphyxiation in Alabama. We have to act quickly to get Rocky off of death row and make sure human rights prevail.

[It’s happened before and you can make it happen again by unlocking a 2X gift today to mobilize global campaigns to demand freedom.]( Take, for example, the case of Moses Akatugba. He was just 16 when he was falsely charged with theft and coerced into ‘confession’ in Nigeria. After Amnesty exposed the facts of his case and thousands of supporters made their voices heard, Moses was freed. Or Magai Matiop Ngong, who was sentenced to death as a child in South Sudan — a violation of international law. After Amnesty supporters took action by calling for this injustice to be overturned, Magai walked away free. Time and time again, our movement has secured people’s freedom and created change. Amnesty has campaigned against the death penalty since 1977 when only 16 countries abolished this cruel punishment. We’ve helped increase that number to 122 countries today. Together, we are unstoppable. Let’s seek justice for more people trapped on death row like Rocky Myers.
