Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.

Rules:

-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --

-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --

-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --

-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today/ . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --

-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--

-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--

-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --

-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

The state of Missouri is set to execute Marcellus, even though literally NO ONE with a stake in the outcome of the case—not even the prosecutor nor the victim's family— wants him to die. Learn More Here

Isn't there some other likely innocent guy about to be executed? Does this happen more than we think and the media is just paying a bit more attention now?

Yes there is another one scheduled for October. An innocent Autistic father wrongfully accused of murdering his terminally ill daughter. Here's the link to his case.

If it's the case I'm thinking of, it's already too late, they killed him Friday. But it might not be the same, unfortunately we kill innocent people somewhat regularly.

That's unfortunately the case for all things. It's a fight of who says it the loudest. And even for some things in society, attention may be futile.

Evil people will find their own explanation for their actions even if it was disproved.
