Watch the episode of Death Row Stories about Sabrina Butler. Sabrina was wrongfully convicted and sentenced to death. She is listed as number 59 on the The Innocence List maintained by the Death Penalty Information Center. She was instrumental in convincing a Texas State Senator to file a bill to abolish the death penalty, when she and exoneree Ron Keine, both of Witness to Innocence came to Texas for our Lobby Day in 2015 to share their stories at a press conference and by visiting and talking to a bunch of legislators and their aides, including the Senator Eddie Lucio, Jr, who filed the abolition bill a couple of weeks after she and Ron asked him to file it.
