James Vernon Allridge III

Supporters of Texas death row inmate James Vernon Allridge III including his attorneys and family are asking the state Board of Pardons and Paroles to recommend life in prison. As of today, Allridge is scheduled to be executed on August 26th.

Allridge is, by all accounts, rehabilitated. He is not asking for absolution or for release but rather to be allowed to live his life out behind bars. I have more information on Allridge below in a previous post and I'm sure will be posting more about him as the next couple of weeks play out.
