Hy there!
I would like to introduce myself to you! My name is Nicole, I´m 31 years old, happily married and I´m from Germany.
I stumbled over a discussion about the death penalty a few months ago and pondered long weeks over it.
What came out is that I wrote to a Deathrow Inmate. I did not found him on this webpage.
Because I´m writing from Europe I searched the Penpal-requests of an organisation called "Alive e.V". There the penpal requests are in english and in german and the prisoners asking for penpals know that it is possible that people from Germany are answering. That was important to me because letters to Germany are more expensive than letters inside the USA.
I did this not out of charity that I wrote to him but because I felt that those people are still humans and deserve some humanity. I guess I hope that, with my letters, I´m able to accompany these people on their way to death.
In my opinion killing is not the way to show people that killing is wrong.
Please apologize my english. It is not my native tongue and I guess that it will be a little bit awkward and sometimes there will be mistakes.
So, if there are any questions please feel free to ask me and I will try to answer them!
Many greetings from Germany
Nicole
