Patrick Mulvaney, Reprieve Fellow 2008-9
Patrick Mulvaney studied journalism at New York University before attending the University of Pennsylvania Law School. He also worked for a year at the National Coalition to Abolish the Death Penalty tracking executions and organizing opposition to capital punishment, and for a year at The Nation magazine, where he edited an online forum on the juvenile death penalty. As a law student, Patrick has interned at the Southern Center for Human Rights, assisting with death penalty litigation, and at Reprieve in London, working on Guantánamo Bay and death penalty issues. Patrick will use his one-year Reprieve Fellowship at the Southern Center for Human Rights to represent people on death row in Alabama who otherwise would not have an attorney. The State of Alabama refuses to provide funding for death row prisoners in post-conviction proceedings and allows judges to impose death sentences even when the jury on the case has recommended that the defendant receive a life sentence instead. Patrick will be defending death row prisoners in post-conviction proceedings in an attempt to deliver real justice and save individual lives.
