UPDATE ON MUMIA’S CASE
10/5/99
As many have heard, the U.S. Supreme Court has upheld the racist rulings of the Pennsylvania state courts by turning down Mumia’s writ of certiorari which was filed this past April 22. Mumia’s lawyers were expecting this to happen. We have learned that Governor Ridge is expected to sign a new death warrant in 30 days. When this happens, Mumia will be put on a death watch and have all "privileges" taken away.
All activists should be on an emergency alert just in case this does happen. Please stay in touch with the IAC for further updates and emails on the next actions planned.
