1/ “Punch After Punch, Rape After Rape, a Murderer Was Made.” @RLSWrites on the case of #LisaMontgomery, a victim of horrific abuse who is scheduled to be executed by US gov on Jan. 12.

2/ “Ms. Montgomery has bipolar disorder, temporal lobe epilepsy, complex post-traumatic stress disorder, dissociative disorder, psychosis, traumatic brain injury and most likely fetal alcohol syndrome.”

3/ “Ms. Montgomery’s male attorneys failed to offer a comprehensive picture of her decades of torture… And the severe cognitive impairment she suffers today is a direct result of those crimes.”

4/ “Systems failed her again and again. Child protective services failed her, the education system failed her and law enforcement failed her.”

5/ “In addition to [the int’l human rights] petition, more than one thousand supporters have put forth their own letters…including prosecutors, anti-trafficking and domestic violence organizations, and mental health practitioners.”

6/ “Ms. Montgomery’s execution, far from righting a wrong, would in itself be an injustice atop an injustice.” #EndTrauma #SaveLisa https://www.nytimes.com/2020/12/18/opinion/lisa-montgomery-execution.html
