Tag: DROP LWOP

Advocates, including LWOP prisoner family members, friends and lawyers seeking to end this cruel sentence will speak publicly at the C-ROB (California Rehabilitation Oversight Board)meeting in Sacramento this Wednesday, urging CDCR Secretary Diaz to allow people serving LWOP to be eligible for this process.

We are writing to ask you to join with California Coalition for Women Prisoners (CCWP) in our statewide campaign to DROP LWOP and secure sentence commutations for all those serving Life Without the Possibility of Parole (LWOP). LWOP is an inhumane sentence which denies people the possibility to rehabilitate and change. We are asking Governor Brown to use his executive powers to commute the almost 5,000 people serving LWOP sentences to parole-eligible sentences.
