CHARLES MAMOU
I was unjustly convicted of murder in Harris County in 1999 and I am now on death row. I have sufficient evidence to support my claim of innocence, however, I am poor and represented by a court appointed lawyer whose only interest is in defending the state, not his client. I am a 28 year old, Black man from a small town in Louisiana. I am a father, brother, son, relative and friend to many people in Louisiana. I am not claiming that racism was the reason for my wrongful conviction. I am simply saying that an injustice was committed upon me and I am now in desperate need of support. Whether it is legal support or just friendly correspondence, I will accept it all warmly. This has been a stressful and lonely experience. I am in Texas, far from my home and family, but I have learned a few things about humility. I humble myself to you and only ask to be greeted by a few friends. I hope to hear from you.

JOHN R. MATAMOROS I would like to correspond with
you. I am a 34 year old Mexican Indian. I am currently on
Death Row in Texas. I enjoy doing crafts, and listening to
music. Here on Death Row, I go to recreation 3 hours a day,
Monday Friday. During this time I play basketball, and work
out. I am in what they call "single
man recreation", which I recreate by myself. I also study my
Bible,
and searching for God's guidance on my life. Feel free to ask me
any
questions you may have so that we can build our friendship.

FARLEY MATCHETT My name is Farley C. Matchett # 999060 and I'm a death
row inmate here in the State of Texas. My crime is defined by the
Texas Penal Code as that of self defense. Due to poor
representation at trial I was quickly sent to death row. On July
11, 1991; I engaged a conversation with a man whom I had made a
monetary loan to. I made inquiries as to when he was going to
settle the 8-month-old debt and at that point, the man became angry
. I could see the situation escalating, so I made an attempt to
leave, but I was abruptly stopped at the door by the victim who spun me
around and struck me with his fist. A fight ensued
and with the victim being much larger than myself, I was manhandled
.
At some point, he grabbed a knife and had it very close to my throat as
he
pushed to slash my throat. At this point, I kicked him in the
groin
area and pushed the knife back towards him. It lodged in his
chest
and he immediately fell. I called the paramedics but he died in
surgery
later. Three days later, I was arrested and interrogated for 36
brutal
hours in which the detectives literally beat a confession out of
me.
I signed it just to get them to stop the beatings. I couldn't see
the
paper because of my swollen eyes, so the detective led my hand in
signing
the confession. I then was thrown into a cell underground to
await
my trial for 19 long months. Trial began on February 22, 1993 and
was over February 26, 1993. It was nothing short of a blatant
mockery
of justice. My Court appointed lawyer did literally nothing to
defend
my rights. He instructed me to plead guilty in order to avoid a
death
sentence and he would inject the self defense plea later. I
complied
because I trusted him but in all actuality, he set me up to get the
death
sentence. He called only two witnesses during the punishment
phase.
He made no objections and in 1996, the Appeals Courts turned me down on
my
first appeal because of this. Hey stated that the lawyer failed
to
enter a noted objection when an error occurred, but since he didn't,
they
couldn't enter it for him. Had he simply objected, the they would
have
granted me a new trial. He allowed the Prosecution team to have
their
way as he did nothing. My victim was portrayed as that of a white
man
to which that's what I knew him as when I had loaned him the
money. I knew him a few years prior to this. During my
trial he was still portrayed as a white man who was married to a black
woman. This was done before a Jury of 11 Whites and 1
Black. Years later….. June 2000, a lawyer investigating the case
reviewed an autopsy report and noted that the victim race was listed as
Black. She checked with the Medical Examiner because she assumed it was
a typing error, but the Medical Examiner assured her the man was of
mixed race Black/White and his features looked more
white than black but legally…. He's black. The Medical Examiner
gave
a swain statement that he informed the Prosecution team when he handed
them
the report, so the knew the man's race. When the lawyer
approached the prosecutor with hopes of making a deal, she was asked to
leave the premises. The trial transcripts that stated him
(victim) as white only days prior were
quickly changed to listing him as black, so she felt that a conspiracy
was
unraveling and she approached a Judge in order to obtain immunity for
the
initial trial lawyer if she could get him to talk. The judge agreed and
she
confronted my trial lawyer and upon learning that he would get
immunity, he
confessed that they “all” knew the victim was Black legally. He agreed-
to
sign an affidavit in a few days but that never happened because he
committed suicide the following day (June 2000). My trial was
without a doubt, filled with many gross violations of prosecutorial
misconduct and defense lawyer misconduct. It was tainted with
injustice and conspiracy. If they would have portrayed the victim
as Black, I wouldn't be sitting here on death row or in any other
jail. My trial is an example of the Judicial Corruption here in
Texas and our Governor always swears that “Everybody”
on death row received a fair trial . The United States Constitution
guarantee's every American the right to a fair trial with an impartial
jury. I
was deny that right because the nurse who doctored my wounds (eyes)
after the beatings was not allowed to testify. The call to the
paramedics was excluded, I was not allowed to testify in my own defense
and then autopsy photos were used to inflame the jury. The judge
ruled the photos of the beaten inadmissible and in a matter of five
days…… I
had a death sentence. My case is like many others here that are
filled with errors and flaws. Many politicians are called for
reforms and guidelines in capital punishment. Somewhere along the
way, an innocent life is going to be terminated by execution. I
seek desperately not to be that life. Texas is sweltering
with injustice and executions are so common that they no longer make
front
page of the Huntsville newspaper. Governor Bush has stood over
145
executions in 5 years he's been in office. He has vetoed bills
that
would stop the execution of the mentally retarded or mentally
ill.
He refuses to allow a pool of experienced public defender system
lawyers
for capital punishment and leaves appointment of lawyers to the trial
judges.
They appoint lawyers who clear the docket and they make “tax
deductible”
campaign contributions to the judge's re-election campaign. There
is no justice for the poor, the mentally retarded, the mentally ill and
people of color. All we can do is hope for a brighter tomorrow
and
pray for miracle in the face of adversity where life hangs in the
balances of mock scales of justice. I seek out one chance at a
new trial, so that I can properly present all of the facts to the Court
that were left out at the initial trial. I ask you for your
support so that I may be
able to hire to defend my case through the appeals courts and back into
the
trial court. I need your help with donations at the following
addresses listed below . You may also contact me directly here at
the prison with
a letter if you choose to do so. Each night as I lay my head on
my
pillow, I pray for Justice, Freedom and the ability to hold my 3
daughters and Grandmother in my arms again. Thank each of you for
your time in this intricate matter. Take care and God bless each
of you. Sincerely, Farley C. Matchett

JAMES McCLOSKEY Hello, my name is Jamie, but my friends call me Lurch just
like the guy on the Adam's family show because I'm six foot
seven inches tall. I'm a thirty four years old while male who
weighs about 250
lbs. I have brown hair and brown eyes. My hobbies are
exercising and listening to most
types of music and furthering my
art
skills. I enjoy ending my days with a Reader's Digest or a good romance
novel. I'm looking for a pen
pal who will not only be supportive emotionally but also if
possible
financially, so I can get some
legal
materials to help fight my case with. Now I'm sure there will
be
questions as to why and how I came to
be on Death Row and will answer any and all questions and I will write
anyone who responds, male or female. I have been on Death Row for almost five and a
half years. Right now I'm halfway in the process of
my
appeals. Hard to report much
on
the progress with the courts moving so slow. You will be informed,
however, I thank anyone in advance
for their reply. Sincerely, Visit the webpage

BOBBY MOORE Dear friend, I am a 39 year old man,
currently incarcerated under sentence of death at the Ellis Unit (Now
moved to Terrell Unit, Livingston) of the Texas department of
corrections. I'm looking for a pen pal to correspond with me
. Needless to say, being locked up for so many hours each and
every day of my life in the "hell-holder" called death row... Is
very painful at times, including full of loneliness.
I really do need someone on the outside world to correspond with.
So that I can maintain mental balance under these in human conditions,
most of the time I go weeks and months without hearing or getting mail
form anybody, and I can assure you that living on death row, and being
confined inside a cage nearly twenty-two hours a day isn't a healthy
way of living for any human being, on the other hand having a
friend or somebody on the outside to communicate with or someone to
talk
to or to confide in can be a source of relief... As well as a blessing
! I really look forward to hearing from
you. Please know that
I thank you for taking out the time to listen to me. Before closing I
note
here this letter hopefully will not be taken as a 'supplication for
sympathy'
but rather an adoration for understanding and sensitivity. For we
all
need someone Thank you kindly, and I hope you'll have a nice
day
!
Peace
be with you. Respectfully yours...

KENNETH MORRIS "BAPTISM OF FIRE" In the absolute deepest
respect and with sincere regards, and love, that only a renewed hearth
can dispense, I extend my greetings. My name is Kenneth W. Morris, I am
a 28 year old African American, presently incarcerated on Texas Death
How and have been so since the age of 23. I was born March 4,1971 in
Houston Texas, the third son of Charles and Jimmie Morris. I've been
compelled to compose this missive, with all hopes of it being shared
with many others of society. Allow me. "Baptism of fire" (a soldier's
first exposure to enemy fire!) "The Death Penalty"! For eighth years
now I have been under fire. In the case I face I'm not the
killer. Although I played a part in the case, I'm innocent of capital
murder. Now, on a lighter note. Being on the Row is a
very lonely life and it's also stressful. So I look for things to
do, such as writing and answering letters, I enjoy drawing, music and
reading. I am interested in meeting people, anyone who likes to write
that may want to help in any way or would just like to know about the
life on the Row. All letters will be answered. Being I have no
outside support and time has distanced my family, I don't get visits,
so my time is yours. I am six foot, 208 pounds. I have very wavy
black hair and brown eyes. My sign is Pisces, my favorite colors are
black, blue and green. I am single and never been married. I love
answering questions and I'm very open minded. I would like to take this
time to thank you for sharing your time to read this missive.
Should there be anyone who would like to get to know me better, their
letter will be greatly appreciated. Hopefully we will
be able do develop a lasting friend ship. Sincerely

hire, that's what I'm accused of anyway, a lot of the people on death
row here are charged with sex crime, some involving the rape and murder
