I'm sure I'm not the only reader who immediately looked back to the recent New Yorker story about the nuns ministering to women on death row in Texas to confirm that Brittany Holberg was one of the women in the story. It made this all the more real. https://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2025/02/17/the-nuns-trying-to-save-the-women-on-texas-death-row

I hope that there are criminal or civil penalties for the damning Brady violations. These people were condemned to death due in part to suborned testimony that was false.

It would be interesting to know the number of death penalty cases in which the convictions were based on the testimony of a jail house snitch, a total stranger to who the defendant supposedly confessed.

How many i wonder were wrongfully accused and sentenced to death, by wrongfully issued testimony....or by being set up by a stranger offering freindship.
