In Philadelphia, hundreds of supporters of death row prisoner and activist Mumia Abu-Jamal rallied on Saturday to mark the 25th anniversary of his arrest for the murder of police officer Daniel Faulkner. Abu-Jamal was convicted for the killing in 1982 but has repeatedly proclaimed his innocence. Amnesty International and other groups have criticized the fairness of his trial and have called for him to be retried. His case has been taken up by anti-death penalty critics around the world.
