| 0:00.0 | In life there are deadlines. Today is the deadline for safe harbor. States that |
| 0:06.8 | certify their electors are presumed to be final certification. |
| 0:13.2 | So today is the day that Joe Biden presumably becomes |
| 0:18.6 | President-elect of the United States. |
| 0:21.0 | The day after tomorrow is another deadline. A possibly innocent man may be |
| 0:27.8 | executed by the federal government and only the president can stop that injustice from occurring and I'm appealing to the |
| 0:36.4 | president to use his extraordinary power of commutation to save a potentially innocent man from execution. |

| 1:41.3 | by either commuting the sentence to life imprisonment |
| 1:44.3 | without any possibility of parole or by at least delaying the execution |
| 1:50.1 | so that the case can be brought to the Supreme Court for further review. |
| 1:54.5 | I'll tell you why I think the president ought to commute the sentence. |
| 1:58.0 | Let's begin with the safe harbor. |
