The Campaign to End the Death Penalty presents...
FORCED CONFESSIONS HOW DO THEY HAPPEN?

Saturday-Sept. 18th, 6 PM
University Church, 5655 S. University, Hyde Park

Join the Illinois Campaign to End the Death Penalty on a forum that will discuss the topic of forced confessions. Why do innocent defendents admit they are guilty? Here in Chicago, over 100 African American have been tortured by former Chicago police commander Jon Burge and his
detectives. Some of these men, the Death Row 10, were sentenced to death as a result of tortured confessions. Hear from those who have been directly affected by the corruption and brutality of the police.

Speakers will include:
A POLICE TORTURE VICTIM, LIVE from his prison cell via telephone hook-up
DEBRA THOMAS, sister of Chicago police torture victim Marvin Reeves
STEVE SCHUTTE, Indiana Public Defender
SIMBA ASKAR, brother of Obadyah Ben-Yisral formerly on Indiana's death row
GRETA HOLMES-Campaign to End the Death Penalty
