Jace Woodrum, Executive Director of the ACLU of South Carolina, released the following statement regarding the execution of Richard Moore:
“Richard Moore’s case was a textbook example of the arbitrariness of the death penalty. Mr. Moore was not ‘the worst of the worst.’ He was a man who worked to better himself and serve those around him, even in the dehumanizing confines of Death Row. The state should not have killed him.”
