Reportback from emergency action to save Mumia's life
Unable to execute political prisoner Mumia Abu Jamal, prison authorities have instead been trying to kill him by neglect. For three months he showed signs of diabetes and treatment was refused until he was finally taken to an outside hospital and fainted with blood sugar at seven times the normal level. On Friday, the 10th of April, supporters protested all over the US demanding compassionate release for Mumia. Here in DC, supporters of Mumia marched on the US Dept of Justice
Mumia Abu Jamal has been effectively proven innocent, but coerced testimony and destroyed ballistics evidence nearly got him executed twice.
