A Missouri man has been executed for the 1998 fatal stabbing of a woman despite calls by her family and the prosecutor’s office that put him on death row to let him serve out the rest of his life in prison.
“Tonight, Missouri lynched another innocent Black man,” NAACP President Derrick Johnson said in a statement.
He did do something, which was to disband the committee investigating whether this man was wrongfully convicted or not and then later he denied a stay of execution.
Governor could have done something, right?

Yep, the governor went above and beyond to ensure an innocent man was lynched by the state.
