AT2W Staff Outgoing Mississippi Governor Barbour Pardons Four Killers: Is This God’s Will?
January 10th, 2012 AT2W Staff 
We sympathize with the families who are very upset, regarding their family member’s alleged killers being set free. However, we have got to think about God using Governor Barbour to set these prisoners free, regardless of the crime. Governor Barbour can also being remembered for releasing the two African American sisters, 36-year-old Gladys Scott and Jamie Scott, 38-year-old who were allegedly both accused of murder and served 16 years in prison. The only way the sisters were able to be released was for 36-year-old Gladys Scott’s to give her kidney to Jamie, her 38-year-old sister, who requires daily dialysis, which was very thoughtful of the governor. Now, before he leaves office he is just doing one more good deed for four more prisoners whom were accused of murder and serving life sentence, they will enjoy freedom, all because Governor Barbour set them free.
Watch Video: Casey Anthony Angers Nancy Grace: Right or Wrong?
January 6th, 2012 AT2W Staff 
Nancy Grace is very angry about Casey Anthony’s video diary and expresses it on her evening show. However, we believe we no longer should be perplexed if Casey Anthony is guilty or not. Casey Anthony has been found not guilty for killing her own child, now it is in the hands of God. We who are outsiders may not have a right to look any further into the case that has already gone through trial. If we truly are born again Christians, we must now give this case or Casey Anthony accused of killing her child Caylee over to God. Why? Because He is the higher judge, and if man, woman, boy or girl does not repent, He gives a worst sentence. Therefore, Casey Marie Anthony’s soul is now in the hands of God. If there is any punishment, He will take care of business, if she has not repented unto Him. We are definitely not saying Casey did or did not commit this horrific crime, what we are saying is after a person has been released and found not guilty, in God’s eyes we maybe wrong to proceed with discussing the situation.

Johnny Pinchback leaves Lew Sterrett Justice Center in Dallas, exonerated from rape case
U.S. States Looking to ‘Right’ the Wrongfully Convicted
Originally posted on July 19, 2011:
North Carolina is among a growing number of states taking steps to prevent and address wrongful convictions and grant greater access to biological evidence.
Until recently, that was largely the purview of the privately funded Innocence Project, which has been involved in 154 DNA exonerations in the USA since 1989, according the group’s research director, Emily West.
Lawmakers in Massachusetts are considering legislation that would establish a right to post-conviction DNA testing.

Troy Davis sister Martina Davis-Correia Dies of Cancer, 44
Sister of Executed Inmate Troy Davis Succumbed to Breast Cancer at 44
We are saddened to hear Troy Davis’ sister has died of breast cancer very soon after her brother was executed three months ago. We know the final decision to kill Troy Davis after several stayed executions deemed too much for her physical state.
We pray for the family and may God give them all strength at this time of grief.

DNA Clears Five Men Wrongly Convicted Of Murder of Teen Girl 20 Years
Wow! It seems like every week there’s a new case of exonerated black male individuals being set free for not committing crimes they spent years locked up in prison for . Again, we are always thrilled to hear these cases and saddened that some of them spent years of their young lives in prison because prosecutors just want to get a case to court. Let us continue to pray for our men and young men who have been bamboozled in our justice system of America. What is this telling us folks?

Exonerated: Henry James Freed from La. Prison After 30 Years on Rape Conviction
Again- we are always happy to hear these kind of cases. Another innocent man freed after 30 years of his life taken away. God is good.
A free man named Henry James has been cleared of raping a woman in 1981 but last month DNA tests freed him from a Louisiana prison Friday. The Innocence Project New Orleans asked Judge Sullivan to throw out the case and order James’ immediate release which James served the longest sentence to be cleared through DNA tests.

Wrongfully Convicted Dewey Bozella Lives His Dream and Wins Pro Boxing Match
We are so happy for Dewey. He’s overcome more than most people could have dreamed after falsely incarcerated for over 26 years.
Read excerpt from ABC News on his life:
After spending 26 years in prison for a murder he did not commit, he finally got the chance to step into the ring – and he made the most of it.
In 1983, he was charged in the killing of a 92-year-old Poughkeepsie woman. He said he was far away from the crime scene, and no physical evidence ever linked him to the crime.

Gallup Poll Says Support For Death Penalty is Deceasing In Light of Recent Exonerations
We are not sure how accurate this news may be on a larger scale, but we assume the public may be seeing some truth to how some accused individuals just may be innocent of the alleged crimes.
