Justice For Police Officer Daniel Faulkner
"This website has been
established and is maintained by a group of private citizens who believe that
an accurate source of information is needed to bring balance and truth to
those who are interested in this matter. We are not affiliated with any police
organization. We are simply a group of individuals that has grown tired of
seeing the outrageous distortions that various Jamal supporters have spread
unchallenged, through the media and on the internet. We have gone to great
lengths to research the true facts of this case and present them here for
the first time. " (wording taken from the site)
The Mumia Teach-In sponsors would like to add
that this site is key to obtaining information that argues against Mumia Abu-Jamal's
innocence. The site includes over one hundred pages which specifically address
many issues regarding the fairness of the trial. In addition, it includes
the complete text of the Pennsylvania Supreme Court decision of October 29,
1998 which denied Abu-Jamal's appeal for a new trial. It contains information
defending the death penalty and explaining current sentencing guidelines.
This website ends with the transcript of ABC's newsmagazine "20/20"
that was aired on December 9, 1998, in which Sam Donaldson provided a favorable
presentation of the prosecution's case.
