In a significant hearing before the state Supreme Court, a prosecutor will address flaws in Marcellus Williams's trial, which has heightened efforts to secure clemency.
Williams, who has maintained his innocence for over two decades, faces execution despite appeals citing a lack of physical evidence and procedural violations during his trial.
Various organizations and public figures, including U.S. Representative Cori Bush, are urging the governor to grant clemency, highlighting the injustices Williams endured during his 24 years in prison.
The case is complicated by the death of crucial witnesses against him and challenges involving the evidence from the murder weapon, which did not support his conviction.
