In California, protests continued over the weekend against the execution of Kevin Cooper. The Rev. Jesse Jackson met with Cooper and called yesterday for the execution to be delayed until the full evidence in the case is examined. Three jurors who convicted Cooper of a 1983 quadruple murder urged his execution to be postponed. The jurors said the execution should be delayed until hair and blood evidence that was unavailable at the time is tested. Jury foreman Frank Nugent said “I’m not saying Mr. Cooper is innocent. All I’m saying is, he has the right to have evidence inspected and looked at that could exonerate him.” On Friday Cooper’s lawyer Lanny Davis also released a statement from a former police informant that suggested police knowingly used Cooper as a scapegoat. Cooper is scheduled to die by lethal injection just after midnight tonight.
