PENDING EXECUTION OF INSANE MAN
The State of Florida is about to execute Marshall Gore whose degree of sanity and rationality may well make his execution unconstitutional. The execution of a prisoner who lacks a rational understanding of the reason for and reality of their punishment violates the US Constitution. The date of execution is set for 1 October. Please call on Governor Scott to commute the death sentence because of doubts of Gore's competence to be executed.
