FYI, my e-mail response from Gov. Minner’s office:
“May 22, 2008
Governor Minner understands and appreciates your concern for Lauren Richardson. While this must be a very difficult time for Lauren’s family and friends, Governor Minner respects the legal process governing this case, the separation of power between the judicial and the executive branches of state government and has faith in the judicial branch to independently and objectively review the case. Governor Minner asks that Lauren and her family are in your thoughts and prayers during this trying time.

Some of you might have received the same form letter/e-mail.
That’s the same email I received. At least Governor Minner’s office mentions prayer. I hope she has a backup plan. It would be a shame if she didn’t have a backup plan....

I doubt Governor Ruth Ann Minner read any of the letters. People need to respond to this woman and tell her that Ruth Ann Minner needs to take a serious interest in this case instead of hiding behind legal dogma.
People may also wish to email these individuals as well:
Mark Brainard
Chief of Staff

Lorilee Harrison
Executive Assistant to the Governor
Phone: (302) 744-4102
E-mail: lorilee.harrison@state.de.us
Emails are also easy to ignore. People need to make phone calls, send faxes and make personal visits to the Governor’s office.
