Stop the Execution of Christopher Collings in Missouri

Governor Mike Parson

Christopher Collings is scheduled for execution in Missouri on December 3, 2024 for the 2007 murder of Rowan Ford.


In continuing to schedule executions, Missouri makes itself an outlier in its use of the death penalty. In fact, Missouri has been one of only a handful of states that has carried out executions in this decade.

The majority of other states are on a downward trend of executions, and increasingly, states are abolishing the practice altogether, including the southern state of Virginia, which repealed its death penalty law in 2021.

Please sign the petition asking Governor Mike Parson to do everything within his power to stop this execution, including issuing a stay, and seeking a path to clemency in the case.

Petitions will be delivered on your behalf in the days leading up to the execution.
