Terry Williams, who committed murder, but who should not be executed.
"FIVE MONTHS before Terrance Williams, at age 18, murdered the man whose slaying has landed him on Pennsylvania's death row, he murdered another man.
"Between those murders, Williams pulled an armed robbery, court records show.
"Before that, at age 16, Williams broke into the Mount Airy home of an elderly couple on Christmas Eve...
"Throughout his childhood, Terry suffered prolonged violent physical and sexual abuse from older males.
"Born into poverty with a violently abusive mother and absent father, Terry faced abuse and neglect in his home that made him vulnerable to sexual predators.
"He was first raped by an older boy when he was only six years old, and he continued to suffer sexual abuse for the next twelve years...
"As a teenager, Terry became acquainted with two middle-aged men who used their influence as a church leader and as a sports booster to get access to young boys.
"These men sexually abused and brutally exploited Terry.
"After years of suffering unimaginable horrors, when he was 17- and 18-years old, Terry killed these two men – and now faces death...
"The jury thus did not hear any evidence about the relentless abuse Terry faced, nor did they know that the two men he killed were in fact his abusers.
"Jurors have stated that that if they had known all the facts about Terry's background and his abuse by the men he killed, they would not have voted for death.
"The widow of the man whose killing resulted in Terry’s death sentence has forgiven Terry and does not want him to be executed..."
Pennsylvania is preparing to execute Terry on October 3, 2012
