Petition for Fernando Eros Caro
We, Italian citizens, support with deep convincement this petition on Fernando Eros Caro's behalf.
Mr. Caro was condemned to death and since January 1982 he has been on San Quentin death row, in California.
Mr. Caro already got three execution dates, and he has been imprisoned for an extremely long time. We realize that to stand a death sentence for over 25 years is painful and degrading for any human being.
We wish you take into account not only the decision already expressed by the Supreme Court, that reversed Mr. Caro's capital punishment, but also the Eighth Amendment of the U.S. Constitution, that forbids the use of cruel and unusual punishment.
We don't want to arrogate us the right of judging the judiciary case, but we simply want to state that Mr. Caro, during all these years, has shown undeniable human qualities and an unordinary sensitivity, through his writings, his paintings and the correspondence he exchanges with many persons in the free world.
We therefore heartily beg you not to inflict Mr. Caro another death sentence.
Best regards
Sincerely,
