Florida Bishops Urge Governor DeSantis to Stop Execution of Robert Long

On Monday, May 20, 2019, as a sign of solidarity and commitment to ending the death penalty and upholding the sanctity of all human life, the Florida Catholic Conference of Bishops sent a letter to Governor Ron DeSantis urging him to halt the execution of Robert Long, scheduled for Thursday, May 23, 2019. Read an excerpt of the letter below: "Even if there were no mitigating circumstances, the Conference would still implore you to choose life over death for Mr. Long. Although he caused much harm, society has been safe from his aggressive acts in the decades of his incarceration. Without taking his life, society can be protected while he endures the alternative sentence of life without the possibility of parole. It is a severe punishment.
