    Philip Workman ...No 95920 Riverbend Maximum Security Institution Nashville, Tennessee Year of Birth: 1953 Children: one Date of offense: August 5, 1981 Sentenced to death: March 30, 1982   PHILIP RAY WORKMAN HAS BEEN GRANTED A STAY FROM THE 6th CIRCUIT 36 hours before his scheduled execution, after he was denied a brand new trial by a three-judge panel; after the hearings before a representative from the Governor where he made a tremendous plea, askinkg for justice, Philip Workman has been granted a six weeks stay. Other judges from the 6th Circuit want to review his case. Their answer will come in May, and Philip Workman will have new hearings. If he is denied again, appeals will succeed to appeals and his attorneys will go immediately to the US Supreme Court. In case of loosing again, Philip Workman's case would, then, come back to the Governor. But this is expected for October, not before. We don't sing Victory until being sure that the victory is there, but frieds, fingers crossed, that is the best new we could expect!  FRIENDS, you still can write to the Governor, letting him know you are aware of what is happening, but because of all the new evidence, you beg im to grant clemency to Philip Workman. You still can send letters to the three newspapers which, for sure, will welcome your comments: THE TENNESSEAN Letters to the editor: 1100 Broadway, Nashville, TN, 37203 FAX: 615 259-8093 e-mail: jgibson@tennessean.com KNOXVILLE NEW SENTINEL Letters to the editor: PO Box 59038, Knoxville, TN, 37950-9038 FAX: 423 342-6404 e-mail: letters@news.com CHATANOOGA FREE PRESS Letters to the editor: PO Box: 1447, Chatanooga, TN, 37401 FAX: 423 757-6383 e-mail: kspence@timesfreepress.com We can suggest you a letter -a draft as we say- for you to compose your own letter to the Governor: If this case was so obvious, then why both Lt Oliver's daughter, Ms Paula Dodillet and ex-wife -two women I deeply respect for the dull pain and the loss they have experienced- would, as they do, ask for clemency? Lt Oliver's daughter even video-taped a statement -or, much more: a plea asking you to grant clemency to Philip Workman and asking for further investigations in her father's death. We could see her with Michelle Workman (Philip Workman's daughter) in Nashville, creating a wonderful and incredible partnership. With the new evidence (ballistic tests showing with NO DOUBT that Philip Workman's gun couldn't have fired the fatal bullet, X-ray proving the same thing), with a perjured testimony, a miscarriage of justice is showing its terrible shadow. State Tennessee didn't execute anybody since 40 years. It would be horrible to resume executions with such a disturbing case! Dear Governor,I beg you to grant clemency to Philip Workman, innocent of capital murder. Sincerely, NAME, ADDRESS, E-MAIL- SIGNATURE 404 James Roberson Parkway Nashville TN 37243-0850 fax number: 615-741-5337 ; Telephone number: 615-741-1150 If as many people as possible could send something along these lines to the Governor it could be of GREAT help THANKS!
