In the wake of a court decision that former district attorneys who become judges should not be allowed to rule on cases they prosecuted, supporters of Mumia Abu Jamal are demanding release of documents related to the conduct of former Philadelphia DA Ronald Castillo. Supporters are urged to call the Philadelphia District Attorney’s Office (215.686.8000) “to demand that files in Mumia’s case be turned over to Mumia’s lawyers, to attain real justice,” said Gwendolyn Debrow, of the Campaign to Bring Mumia Home.
