Kentucky: Bishops for Clemency

The Lexington Herald-Leader reports Kentucky's four Catholic bishops (from Louisville, Owensboro, Lexington and Covington) have asked Governor Steve Beshear to commute the death sentence of 36-year old Marco Allen Chapman who is scheduled to die by lethal injection on Nov. 21. Interestingly, the request is said to be "against the inmate's wishes." See story here.
