Marcellus Williams

Mary — On Tuesday night, the state of Missouri executed Marcellus Williams, despite no DNA evidence proving his guilt. Leading up to the execution, hundreds of thousands of people across the United States urged Governor Mike Parson to grant a stay, which he declined to do. Now, this petition is calling for Governor Parson's resignation. Add your voice by signing the petition now.

Williams's wrongful execution represents a stark miscarriage of justice under the tenure of Governor Mike Parson. It is essential to remember that a life was unjustifiably ended due to the systemic failing of our judiciary system. Our trust in the justice system is deeply undermined by such occurrences. There are unsettling discrepancies in this case. The DNA evidence found at the crime scene did not match that of Marcellus Williams. Despite the lack of conclusive evidence, Williams was sentenced to death, a grave decision that was upheld during Governor Parson's term (source: The Innocence Project). This is not about politics, it's about our basic human rights, and a life being wrongfully taken cannot be reinstated. As a citizen deeply engrossed in this case, I am appalled by the miscarriage of justice and the clear disregard for the principle of "innocent until proven guilty." We must hold those in power accountable to maintain integrity in our legal system. Therefore, we call for the resignation of Governor Mike Parson, demanding transparency, accountability, and justice in our legal proceedings.
