    Relief Urgently Needed for Innocent Man on Ohio's Death Row

    More than 11,000 Change.org members sent letters to Ohio's governor, Ted Strickland, calling on him to grant clemency to Kevin Keith, a man on the state's death row. Keith has maintained his innocence since the time of his arrest, and has the backing of national criminal justice groups, including the National Innocence Network. With just weeks remaining until Keith was set to be executed, Gov. Strickland has listened to these calls for relief, and has granted clemency to Keith. Gov. Strickland said that problems with the evidence obtained in Keith's case required that the sentence be commuted to life without chance of parole, instead of the death penalty.

    Demand a Civil Rights Investigation Into the Police Murder of Aiyana Jones

    The FBI has opened an investigation into the police murder of Aiyana Jones. The Civil Rights Division will be conducting the investigation and reporting their findings to prosecutors in the U.S. Justice Department. While this investigation can never undo the tragedy that occurred in Detroit on May 16, it is a crucial step in the right direction. An innocent child died at the hand of police and accountability must be demanded.

    Hold Dallas Shelter Responsible for Trapped Cat's Death

    In early May, a cat escaped from his cage at Dallas Animal Services and became trapped in a wall. Although the shelter manager was repeatedly made aware of the cat and said he'd take care of it, he did nothing and allowed the cat to die. Nearly 600 Change.org community members demanded that he be held accountable for this cruelty.

    The DAS manager has now been charged with felony animal cruelty. You can read the full story and see an affadavit with more details on the case here on the Animals blog.
