[FADPUpdate] Meet Ron McAndrew

[melliott3 at aol.com]

Friends,

Thursday, I had the pleasure of participating in the Tampa Bay Fox13 
News broadcast of "Your Turn With Kathy Fountain" with former Florida 
State Warden, Ron McAndrew and Nick Cox, a former Capital Case 
Prosecutor and law professor.  Ron McAndrew is a powerful and gripping 
new voice in the struggle for abolition.  He brings it.  Floridians 
will be hearing more from Ron McAndrew.  You can see and hear him on 
the FADP web site or through the direct link below.

The topic of the show is "Executions on Hold - Should Florida Stop 
Executions?"  It is a rather large file, please take a few minutes to 
watch the video.  Without a high speed internet connection, it will 
take a long time to download.  If you are not able to view it, please 
let us know.


This opens well with Windows Media Player:

August 1, 2007 - WTVT - FOX 13 News Death Penalty Discussion ( WMV 
Video )


The video is also available at www.fadp.org.  Click on "DP in the News" 
and select the August 1, 2007 WTVT - FOX 13 link.

As many of you know, I am also the State Death Penalty Abolitionist for 
Amnesty International USA.

September 10, final hearings will begin in the 5th Circuit Court in 
Ocala on lethal injection.  8 days have been set aside for these 
hearings.  October 11, the Florida Supreme Court will hear oral 
arguments on both this case (Lightbourne) and the Schwab (under Death 
Warrant for Nov. 15 execution) appeal.

George Bickner has been the technical whiz behind the many improvements 
and additions to our web site.  Thanks, George!
