There will be a hearing on the death penalty Thursday September 16, 2010 at 6:30 pm at Keene State College Alumni Center, Centennial Hall. People are encouraged to come and testify.
Testimony should last no more than three or four minutes and focus on
the implications for the condemned, the victim’s family members, prison officials, and the wider community.
Of course if anyone has had personal experience with the death
penalty that story is important.
The study commission members are most respectful of all testimony.
This is a critical time for death penalty repeal in NH. The Study Commission
has been meeting since November 2009, we have a man on death row, and
there are severe limits on state resources that have tremendous social justice
implications.
