5. Reply with this under @BillLeeTN’s tweets:
Pervis is on death row in your state. People with intellectual disabilities are at special risk for wrongful execution, according to the Supreme Court. I urge you to commute Pervis’s sentence. Please do not allow an innocent man to be executed under your supervision.
6. Sign this petition that hasn’t even reached 500,000 signatures yet. Not sure if it’s international, but if it allows you go ahead and sign it. do NOT donate as it doesn’t go to the cause whatsoever. https://www.change.org/p/take-pervis-payne-off-of-death-row
7. Email:
(i’ll post the prompt below, i know you don’t wanna type all of that out)
7. (continued): Hello my name is [NAME] and I am calling in regards to Pervis Payne. Pervis is on death row in your state and his case has all the hallmarks of a wrongful conviction — an intellectual disability, racial bias, and crucial missing evidence. People with intellectual
disabilities are at special risk for wrongful execution, according to the Supreme Court. Execution someone with an intellectual disability is unconstitutional. I urge you to commute Pervis’s sentence. Please do not allow an innocent man to be executed under your supervision.
If I forgot any ways to help please let me know and I’ll post them under this thread but you have 7 (which is a lot) different ways to help. We don’t have much time so please let’s do all we can now and get him off death row. I’m sorry if I made any errors or spelling mistakes.
