Description:On 10/26/2004, Dominique Green, 30, was executed by lethal injection in Huntsville, TX. Arrested aged 18 in the fatal shooting of a man during a robbery outside a Houston convenience store, he may have taken part in the robbery but insisted he didn't pull the trigger. The jury, which had no African Americans on it, sentenced him to death. Despite obvious errors in the legal procedures & protests of the victim’s family, he spent the last 12 years of his life on Death Row. When Cahill found himself in Texas in 12/2003, he visited Dominique at the request of Judge Sheila Murphy, who was working on the appeal of the case. In Dominique, he encountered a level of goodness, peace & enlightenment that few ever attain. Cahill joined the fight for Dominique’s life, even enlisting Dominique’s hero, Archbishop Desmond Tutu, to make an historic visit to Dominique & to plead publicly for mercy. Cahill was so moved by Dominique’s extraordinary life that he was compelled to tell the story of his unjust death at the hands of the state. A Saint on Death Row introduces a young man whose history, innate goodness & final days you'll never forget. It also shines a light on America’s racist, deeply flawed legal system.
