Freeman Case
Governor Mark Hatfield is still
studying the case of 21-year old
Jeannace Freeman, scheduled to
die in the gas chamber January

secretary, Travis Cross.
However, Cross said, “the gov
ernor has advised the attorneys
for Jeannace Freeman that he
finds nothing in the case at this
time as a result of their presen
tation which warrants the exer
cise of the extraordinary relief
of executive clemency.
“This statement applies only
to their presentation The gov
ernor is continuing to read the
transcript of her case and other
documents before announcing a
final decision."
Miss Freeman was convicted of
first degree murder along with
Mrs. Gertrude Nunez Jackson for
the murder of Mrs Jackson's two
children Mrs. Jackson pleaded
guilty and received a life sen
tence. Miss Freeman pleaded in
nocent and received the death
penalty.
