Join us outside the courthouse from 8:30 AM until 1 PM on Friday, October 26th, 2022 for the next hearing in the current appeal of Mumia Abu-Jamal’s unjust 1982 conviction in the death of Daniel Faulkner.

The current case is based upon six boxes of evidence discovered by Philadelphia DA Larry Krasner in an office storeroom and released to the courts in December 2019 during an earlier appeal in Mumia’s case. The boxes were marked indicating they are part of an overall lot of 32 boxes. However, the location of the other (presumed) twenty-six boxes of suppressed evidence in his case is still unknown.

At the prior court hearing in October, the court announced its intention to dismiss the current appeal without examining the new evidence, in particular regarding illegal racial bias in jury selection during Mumia’s original 1982 conviction (the law around this question is often referred to as the “Batson” ruling.
