Yesterday Judge Bob Helfrich finally did what the governor of Mississippi didn't have the courage to do: clear Clyde Kennard's name.
I originally posted about the injustice that Clyde Kennard had suffered and the unwillingness of Gov. Haley Barbour to clear Kennard's name. The people of Mississippi should be proud of Judge Bob Helfrich for his courage.
You can read more about the judge's decision and also about the high school students who played a crucial role in advocating clemency for Kennard.
