CONDEMNED. Keith LaMar £10
Keith LaMar is a death row prisoner who was wrongfully convicted in the State of Ohio. On November 16, 2023, the State intends to execute him, even though he has maintained his innocence for nearly three decades, all while being held in indefinite solitary confinement. In the aftermath of the 1993 Lucasville Prison Uprising, the State of Ohio was under public pressure to clean up a multi-million dollar mess, one that included the death of a prison guard and multiple prisoners. After State investigators trampled the crime scene and contaminated any and all potential evidence, they paid jailhouse informants to create a false narrative that implicated Keith, even though he wasn’t affiliated with any of the groups involved in the riot. In 2013, after losing complete faith that the Courts would ever grant him the justice he had been seeking for over two decades, Keith LaMar decided it was time to take his story to the Court of Public Opinion. He spent eight painstaking months writing Condemned, an autobiographical account detailing how, in spite of his innocence, he found himself the target of a witch hunt that sent him to death row following the 1993 Lucasville Prison Uprising.
