I’m on the e-mail list of Ohioans to Stop Executions (OTSE). They do good work in one of the few northern states that still uses the death penalty. See their message below urging people to tell Ohio to save the life of an innocent person. I hope you will contact Ohio’s governor and parole board. I clicked their links and sent letters. I reworded their letters as follows:

I sent this to Governor DeWine:
Many nations in the civilized world have ABOLISHED THE DEATH PENALTY.
In the U.S., MORE AND MORE STATES have abolished it too.
MANY INNOCENT PERSONS HAVE BEEN SENTENCED TO DEATH.
YOU MUST PROTECT AN INNOCENT MAN, Anthony Apanovitch!
PLEASE ENCOURAGE the Ohio Parole Board to hold a hearing for Anthony Apanovitch. YOU HAVE THE POWER to urge them to hear Apanovitch’s serious claims of innocence.
Do this for the sake of LIFE and JUSTICE
I sent this to the Ohio Parole Board:
Ohio Parole Board Members,
PLEASE hold a hearing for Anthony Apanovitch as soon as possible!
Mr. Apanovitch has serious claims of innocence, as evidenced by the 2015 court case that acquitted him of the charges brought by the prosecution. Our criminal legal system has failed Mr. Apanovitch! YOU MUST NOT KILL THIS INNOCENT PERSON!
Please use your power, knowledge, and position to provide Mr. Apanovitch the hearing he deserves.
