California | Santa Cruz Indymedia | Police StateFree Radio Santa Cruz: Interview with Barbara Becknell Tookie Willams advocate/editor
Audio Interview with Barbara Becknell Tookie Willams advocate/editor talk about the case and what people can do to try to stop the execution set for Dec 13th 2005 The U.S. Supreme Court, on October 11, 2005, ruled against Tookie on his final appeal and set his execution date for December 13. Thus they disregarded 9 of the 24 Ninth Circuit Court judges' assertion that the District Attorney at Tookie's trial employed "reprehensible and unconstitutional" racist tactics, using animal-in-a-jungle metaphors to refer to Tookie and to the South Central environment in which he lived. This landmark ruling means that minorities can now legally be rejected from juries based on race. This is now the law of the land.
