FLOOD THE ATTORNEY GENERALS OFFICE, DEMAND NO APPEAL TO STAY OF EXECUTION
The 9th Circuit Court of Appeals has issued a stay of execution today for Kevin Cooper just a few hours before he was to be executed in San Quentin. This stay represents a temporary victory to people who are opposed to the racist death penalty and to all of those who are demanding a new trial for Kevin Cooper based on the mountain of evidence indicating his innocence.
The execution order is good for 24 hours starting 12:01 tonight Feb 10. The stay can be overruled by the courts at any moment during this time period so we must keep up the pressure by coming out to San Quentin tonight.
The state's Attorney General office is weighing its option to appeal the 9th Circuit Court's stay by petitioning the Supreme Court.

We know that it is not the courts who will gain the freedom of Kevin Cooper and the over 600 others on death row in California but the rising tide against the racist death penalty.
