Please pray for Edward Nathaniel Bell, who is scheduled to be executed by the Commonwealth of Virginia on February 19, for the shooting death of Winchester Police Sgt. Ricky L. Timbrook during a late evening police chase in 1999. It was an all white jury. You already know what I think about the jury system if you read my blog. ( See Jan. 26) It's not a jury of your peers. And all white? There is also a question of perjury regarding one of the witness.
And if he is not reprieved, please pray for the repose of his soul.
