Do Not Execute Calvin Shuler!
Calvin Shuler, SC
June 22, 2007
South Carolina has scheduled the execution of Calvin Shuler for the December 1997 murder of James Brooks. The state of South Carolina should not execute Shuler for his role in this crime. Executing Shuler would violate the right to life as declared in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and constitute the ultimate cruel, inhuman and degrading punishment. Furthermore, Shuler claims ineffective assistance of counsel in during his trial, since the defense counsel did not investigate any possible mitigating evidence, such as his history of steroid use and suicide attempt prior to the offense.
Please write to Gov. Mark Sanford on behalf of Calvin Shuler!
