You know
Oh, because YOU say so? What you're missing is the government doesn't believe he is innocent. Can you prove he is? The answer is no. His "friend" set him up very well. Left the murder weapon and bandana in his crib. Testified against him at his trial. Said he was the triggerman. There is no evidence that shows to a 100% certainty he is innocent. Sometimes its very hard to prove you didn't do something. His predicament starts with his boy.
The Government is willfully ignoring evidence of this mans innocence . It’s all out of spite for him being a black man , the victim being white (white family) and being associated with the actual killers (He had no idea the crime occurred). He was set up

Here’s what you need to know about Julius Jones’ case:

1. Julius Jones was at home having dinner with his parents and sister at the time of the murder; however, his legal team failed to present his alibi at his original trial. His trial attorneys did not call Mr. Jones or his family members to the stand.

2. Mr. Jones did not match the description of the person who committed the crime, which was provided by a sole eyewitness. The person who killed Mr. Howell was described as having 1-2 inches of hair, but Mr. Jones had a shaved head.

3. A man named Christopher Jordan matched the eyewitness’ hair description, but claimed only to have been the “getaway driver” and not the shooter at trial. He was the State’s star witness against Mr. Jones.

In exchange for testifying that Mr. Jones was the shooter, Mr. Jordan was given a plea deal for his alleged role as the “getaway driver.” He served 15 years in prison and, today, he is free.

4. Three people incarcerated with Mr. Jordan at different times have said in sworn affidavits that Mr. Jordan told each of them that he committed the murder and framed Mr. Jones. None of these three men have met Mr. Jones and they do not know one another. And none of them have been offered a shorter sentence or incentive in exchange for disclosing Mr. Jordan’s confessions.

The impact of racial bias in Julius’ Jones’ case:

1. Mr. Howell, a white man, was killed in a predominantly white neighborhood. Immediately, then District Attorney Bob Macy characterized the crime as an act of violence committed by Black men, fueled by drugs. This narrative was perpetuated by media coverage.

2. The officer who arrested Mr. Jones called him the n-word and dared him to run, then implied he would shoot him if he did.

3. Eleven out of the 12 jurors at Mr. Jones’ trial were white, and one juror referred to Mr. Jones by the n-word, and suggested that he be taken out behind the courthouse and shot.

4. One-third of District Attorney Macy’s death penalty convictions have been overturned due to prosecutorial misconduct. Many of those whose convictions were vacated are Black people. To date, 10 people sentenced to death in murder cases in Oklahoma have been exonerated.

Im surprised nobody is talking about the three botched executions that have happened in the past 7 years since oklahoma changed their execution protocol. All three executions involved black men.

That makes no sense. You expect more from someone who set you up to be executed:gucci:
Expecting more from the entity that actually decided to execute you makes more sense? They believe Jones is responsible. They are gonna make moves based on that. His man can dead all this right now. You don't ever expect somebody who did you wrong, especially a friend, to make it right?:what:
