Urgent! #ClemencyForKJ

Kevin “KJ” Johnson, a Black youth, was sentenced to death for the killing of a white Kirkwood police officer, William McEntee, a crime committed when he was 19 years old. Despite many erroneous and unfair court rulings, grossly ineffective counsel, and racist prosecutorial policies, KJ remains on Missouri’s death row. On May 11th, 2022, the Missouri Attorney General motioned the Missouri Supreme Court to set an execution date.

We are asking you to help KJ by signing a clemency petition as we call upon Missouri Governor Parson to spare KJ's life, and grant him clemency.

You can read the full Clemency Petition for KJ below or here.

Missourians for Alternatives to the Death Penalty is committed to uplifting the humanity, life, and need for compassion, support, and empathy for Kevin, who has many family, friends, and supporters who love and value him.
