NEW: When a prosecutor says that someone is on death row based on a lie, a just system would fix that. In our system, the outcome for Richard Glossip is still uncertain.

46 groups are calling for the immediate release of Cambodian journalist Mech Dara. He was charged on Tuesday with incitement, a vague charge often used by authorities as a tool for intimidation and repression. Dara's arrest looks like more of the same:

BREAKING: The SCOTUS conservatives will not stop tonight's scheduled execution of Marcellus Williams by Missouri. All three liberal appointees would have granted a stay.

In the days leading up to his execution, Keith Gavin, a Muslim, made requests about what he wanted to eat, the garments he would wear, & his final words before he died.
For @boltsmag, I spent Gavin's final day with him & watched Alabama deny them.

After she watched the John Oliver episode, she did something she had never done before: google the health effects of PFOS. She was disturbed by what she read.

Here's our piece from Sunday about executions, and the company we believe manufactured unregulated drugs that were used for lethal injections. You know, standard comedy show stuff....youtube.com/watch?v=SOn3wba8…

There are few things more rewarding or enraging than reading — or now watching — a @csmcdaniel report on where a state or, tonight, the federal government is getting its execution drugs. There is no one better doing this reporting. Good job, @LastWeekTonight and @iamjohnoliver.

I know I usually share a link to our main story here on Mondays, but HBO has decided they’re going to wait until Thursday to post them to YouTube from now on. I hope they change their mind, but until then, you can see our piece about the Supreme Court on HBO, on MAX, and on YouTube in a few days

After just one day of organizing, about 90% of our union walked out today in protest of management's devastating layoffs proposal and multiple unfair labor practices.
We are so thankful for the solidarity shown to us during this historic work stoppage. ✊

Hochul vetoed the Challenging Wrongful Convictions Act last night. Here's her veto memo explaining her decision

Just absolutely one of the worst things I've seen in my life. Discussing it on Twitter feels disrespectful but scrolling by and not saying anything seems worse.
The babies' "bodies were discovered in a decomposing state in the Al-Nasr Hospital nursery, in what may amount to a horrifying execution and a crime against humanity"
Even by the standards of this horrific Israeli war in Gaza, this story truly shocks you:

39 journalists have been killed in the first month of the Israel-Gaza War, the deadliest month since CPJ started keeping statistics in 1992.
34 were Palestinians; nearly all died from Israeli airstrikes, many in their homes with their families: cpj.org/2023/11/journalist-c…
