Hunnicutt in the TV-series "M*A*S*H" and Dr. Jim Hansen in the weekly NBC series "Providence".

| Oregonians for Alternatives to the Death Penalty continues to promote the discussion on Oregon's death penalty and we are making progress toward the opportunity to repeal the fatally flawed public policy in favor of programs that demonstrate evidenced-based outcomes that really do deter crime, violence and murder. Also, on the program for the evening will be Danielle Fulfs, Outreach Coordinator for the Washington Coalition to Abolish the Death Penalty. The death penalty is losing favor across the country and the West Coast organizations are working in concert to repeal the death penalty. Also on the program, representing Murder Victim Families for Reconciliation (MVFR), will be Becky O'Neil McBrayer. MVFR is a national organization of over 4,000 family members who have lost loved ones to murder and speak out against the death penalty. |
