The Alabama Solution Film Screening & Community Discussion – October 17, 2025

Join Missouri Justice Coalition (Mojustice.org) on Friday, October 17th, 6:30pm to screen “The Alabama Solution”, the film that has been described by the LA Times as “one of the most shocking, visceral depictions of our carceral state ever put to film.”

Missouri Justice Coalition is working to build a statewide prison advocacy movement by empowering impacted community members, amplifying the need for reforms & centering those most impacted by the carceral system in Missouri. We will come together to watch the film and discuss how we can apply the lessons from Alabama to our work in Missouri.

Clemency for Lance Shockley – October 14, 2025

We need your help to support Lance Shockley and his fight for clemency Missouri plans to murder Lance Shockley on 10/14/2025. Lance has always maintained his innocence and MADP supports him on his claim.

The jury did not impose the death sentence. He was sentenced to death by the judge, not a jury of his peers. The jury was deadlocked.
Law enforcement identified over 500 investigative leads and multiple alternative suspects, many of which were not run down.
The case is based on circumstantial evidence – the state admits this! No direct evidence ties Lance to the crime: no blood or bodily fluids, no DNA, no hair, no fingerprints, and no eyewitnesses — more information can be obtained at the website link below.
The case involves “junk science” which is not scientifically sound.
The integrity of the trial has been called into question.
The jury foreman brought a self-published book to trial, a fictionalized autobiography describing murderous vigilante justice against a drunk driver. He brought the book to deliberations and showed it to other jurors. Lance’s trial lawyers never questioned anyone about the book.
