Hi all; We're the hosts and moderators of this message board - and also the (all volunteer) founders and directors of the Canadian Coalition Against the Death Penalty. (Tracy and Dave). You can email us at info@ccadp.org We became involved in the issue in 1998 and began the CCADP and the CCADP website that same year. The first prisoner that we had a page for was innocent death row prisoner Jimmy Dennis at www.jimmydennis.com We decided to utilize the web as an outreach and activist tool and offer free webspace (via mailed letters that we post) to death row prisoners anywhere in the world in an attempt to make people realize that we are killing human beings!.... We've just opened up this board - and if you are a family member or spouse of a DR inmate we also have a PRIVATE area for you to join - email me at info@ccadp.org to register. Enjoy the board; communicate, make contacts; share advise and experience, work together! Towards a better world... Tracy and Dave CCADP

Hello All , I received an invitation to introduce myself to the board, so here goes: I have been involved, (in one way or another) in the prison system (from the outside looking in) to the corruption and greed that generally follows. I have family members and loved ones, that are sorely missed, doing serious time. I think one of the most important issues today involving the Prison System is to focus on the Abuses that the inmates daily receive. Many Thanks, ACE88

Greetings !
just a little word to introduce myself - My name is Myriam, I'm Belgian and I run the Coalition for Truth and Justice since 1999. We are member of the World Coalition and TCADP. We have offices in Texas, Holland, and Italy and have a relay in France. the fight against DP is our first target. We support death row inmates mainly in the biblical belt of the USA , helping them for instance to find penpals who can help them, we educate students in colleges and universities about the barbary of DP. We publish a newsletter 5 x a year with inmate's articles. All of us are volunteers...... For myself I write to a dozen of inmates on death row and try to visit them twice a year when I'm able to afford the expenses of the travel...of course....smile ! regs Myriam
