He’s guilty .. I don’t know if he shot him or not bc if he didn’t he was definitely there and apart of the planning
Mob intimidation is not gonna change the verdict.
Once again they cower to the disgusting mob of virtue signalers, there’s so much evidence against him it’s ridiculous but a couple stupid celebrities say he’s innocent and the sheep come flocking to blindly follow
If there was doubt don't execute him but definitely never let him out
As I said before, they are already trying to figure out how to get this murderer out! Just this morning there is talk about the current governor not being able to stop future governors from pardoning him or giving him parole. That is exactly the B.S. we were concerned about. This is a damn murderer and just because everyone is on this band wagon of all blacks are in prison and should not be because they were railroaded or discriminated against is B.S. This is the next movement putting all of these violent criminals and murderers back on the street that will KILL again and put LAW ABIDING citizens in danger! Stitt knew that if he did not give into the UNREASONABLE demands these people would burn down and loot our city again for which they were never held responsible for the first time. I don't know why we keep giving into people who have disrespect for the law and other citizens. Putting Julius out on the street is a dangerous move – once a thug, murderer or rapist or any combination of the three – that is what you always are – you can't change the stripes. Now, they can lie and make people think they changed and people can lie to try to show a person did not commit a crime, as in the Julius Jones case – when we know they did. These movements are getting very dangerous and other innocent lives will be lost when those that should have been behind bars or executed are not – but let back into society!
Set him free. He didnt do it.

He a gud boy
Never dun no wrong
ABC news should be ashamed. That man is a monster and doesn't deserve to be saved, what about the family of the VICTIM?! He should rot in jail for the rest of his life!
Death penalty its not justice!!!!
We're still the only developed country which upholds the barbaric practice of capital punishment, which has been proven not to be an effective deterrent. Remember that.
The govenor knew this is not Christian at all. Some republicans do not practice what they preach and good at only choosing what they want to do and ignoring what they should NOT be doing according to God and His Word. Jones has been on death row for nearly 20 years in connection. Jones says he's innocent, as do his family, attorneys and supporters. Wish they had videos and technology back then that could also help with his innocence. God is watching. With all that some people have witnessed, or experienced, Oklahoma is not a nice state when it comes to people of color.
Oklahoma Republican governor grants clemency to Julius Jones, halting his execution. He came to the decision following "prayerful consideration and reviewing materials presented by all sides of this case," he said in a statement on Twitter.
No
"Too many holes in the case" ….. Let's keep em in prison for life!!! WTF
I'm not against the death penalty per say, but when you think about it, the government executing people does seem kind of barbaric for 21st century America, even if the person's crimes were heinous.
At least this murderer is gonma stay locked up forever
Hey nobody speaks about victims literally nobody
What about victims family ? What about victims life ?? What about victims family ??
a kid lost his or her dad , a wife lost husband , a family lost livelihood
I’m not a white but I’m surprised how cultured people monsters get way more attention than the person who died in this monsters hands why ??
Media is behind , celebrities jump in
A innocent man working hard for his family and life is killed , shooting everyday , woman being harassed and killed wow this society is so much biased and screwed up
Paul was executed in front of his kids. RIP to the actual victim Paul Howell.
The power of social media, not a serious review of the physical evidence, testimony and eye witness accounts. 6 days prior he stuck a gun into a guys face and stole his car. Then he tailed Mr Howell, followed him to his house and shot him in the head. Oklahoma should punish a murderer, not let him see his family for another 30 years while the Howells suffer. Jones was a scumbag. enjoy prison.
The murder weapon was found hidden in this dudes house…. wtf…. black privilege at its finest.
It’s amazing how the jury have not reached verdict for Murder Kyle Rittenhouse. When Julius Jones is clearly innocent. These politicians need a new profession?
Rest in peace Paul Howell.
unreal…this guy walked up on a man he did not know and blew his brains out at point blank range in front of his sister and two kids. now this cowardly sack of filth has been granted a stay of execution.
sick and disgusting bullshit.
funny how you guys dont know any evidence and just cause he is "black" you have to save his life ….. remember when he gets released and kills someone do we get to kill all the ppl that supported him?
The man who was MURDERED can't be Hugged either.
It’s not all bad, he’ll spend the rest of his life in a cage
Y does the government kill people who kill people even tho it happens every day and will never stop? Just confuses me

Jones killed a father. His children deserve the same for the killer. Besides, my taxpayer continues to pay for his food, shelter/housing, water, electricity, heating, a/c, clothing, television, etc.
So this guy is crying because he's about to be put down like a dog. He rather do a life sentence than death!! I don't see these celebrities especially that Kim girl looking into other cases that don't involve black folks. There's other people in the system that go through this. She over looks the them because they ain't black. But then she wants to feel like she's doing God's work! Nigga please. I've been in the system. Death is better than life. You're living but your life is Meaningless being in prison. Especially a life sentence.
His sentence has been commuted to life without parole.
part of the letter he wrote to his gf while in prison: " …. i got some stupid a$$ relatives, you know, so if the call you to the stand, your best bet is to say you don't remember" . Sound like reaaaaaaly innocent guy
The victims family we are with u all the way.
Kim Kardashian needs to stick to worrying about her body because she obviously has no common sense
So a black man “kills†a white man with questionable evidence and y’all sentence him to death but when a white man kills a black man with irrefutable evidence he’s given 22.5 years in prison?
They DNT want to talk about the facts .his DNA was at the scene his DNA was on the scaff
Play stupid games, win stupid prizes.

The legal system doesn't work. Keep proving it.
But he’s black and that means he’s innocent.
