Hi, I have been writing to several men on death row, in Arizona and in Montana. I started doing "Prison Ministry" shortly after seeing "Dead Man Walking," then I had the pleasure of going to a seminar given in Seattle by Sister Helen PreJean. Back in 1992, I started writing to two brothers, on Death Row in AZ. They are still there and are doing as well as can be expected. Roger and Robert Murray were convicted of murder back in 1991 in Kingman, AZ on their way home from a trip to Las Vagas, NV. I don't judge anyone for their offenses, simply because I wasn't there. Robert Murray has written a book, a couple years old now, called, "Life on Death Row." It can be found in bookstores or on Amazon.com ~ it is a very good read!
He is now busy writing his biography, which should be great!
Thank you for reading this and God bless!
In peace,
Nina Hall
Abolish the Death Penalty is a blog dedicated to...well, you know. The purpose of Abolish is to tell the personal stories of crime victims and their loved ones, people on death row and their loved ones and those activists who are working toward abolition. You may, from time to time, see news articles or press releases here, but that is not the primary mission of Abolish the Death Penalty. Our mission is to put a human face on the debate over capital punishment.
