Anthony's Petition: Congresswoman lets Anthony down
|
| Charles
Anthony Nealy (known as Anthony) is sitting on death row in Texas for a
crime he didn't commit. This site aims to provide information regarding
his case that proves he has been poorly represented and keep you up to date
with his case. All Anthony is asking for is a retrial so he can fairly put his side of the argument across - nothing more, nothing less. |

Anthony’s petition raised 765 signatures; supporters from the USA, UK, Germany, France, Australia, New Zealand, Canada, Italy, the Netherlands and many other countries respectfully requested Anthony’s congressional representative to assist him. However, Congresswoman Eddie Bernice Johnson clearly felt that the case of an innocent man on death row, within her own state, was of no significance or relevance to her. She wrote to Anthony’s supporters: Thank you for your correspondence dated February 24th 2004. I appreciate your confidence in me: however, I must inform you that the issue you have requested assistance on is out of my jurisdiction. It is my hope that the attorney assigned to the case will work on Mr Nealy’s behalf. Sincerely Eddie Bernice Johnson Member Of Congress (30th District, Texas). Obviously Ms Johnson is a very busy woman. We are sure that she has many luxurious political dinners to attend. All of that networking and back-scratching must mean that she has no time whatsoever to spend on writing a few lines, or making a few phone calls to even CHECK that Anthony is receiving fair legal representation. The strength of Anthony’s case is breath-taking and clearly requires further investigation. Let’s hope that at the next Congressional elections in Dallas, the general public will vote for someone who is willing to spend time and energy in truly helping his / her constituents. In the meantime, Anthony would like to thank everyone who signed his petition and who cares about his case. If you would like to do something pro-active to help Anthony’s case, we recommend that you write to one of the following:
