Herman Wallace one of Angola 3 has terminal liver cancer, seeks compassionate release.

Herman Wallace and Albert Woodcox have been in solitude for 41 years.

Even if they did kill a prison guard over 40 years ago (they say they were framed, which is unlikely, since we know our criminal justice system is entirely fair regardless of race!)
But say they did it - 41 years in solitude!!

No one deserves that. Not even Henry Kissenger.

Now Henry Wallace is seeking compassionate release; at age 71 he has liver cancer and a short time to live. He wants to end his life in hospice, not in solitary.
