Dear Paul,
I want to thank you once again for being a generous supporter of
Virginians for Alternatives to the Death Penalty (VADP).
Enclosed is a copy of Closing the Slaughterhouse: The Inside Story
of Death Penalty Abolition in Virginia, a new book written by former
VADP staff person Dale Brumfield.
Here is a brief overview of the book:
“For over 400 years Virginia’s death penalty embraced a ‘finality
over fairness' philosophy, ensnaring many innocent and undeserving
victims under the bogus pretexts of ‘offering closure’ or being ‘tough
on crime.’
“Death was the Virginia way. Now, thanks to five decades of diligent
work by dozens of abolitionists, advocates, capital defense attorneys,
faith leaders, and more, it’s over.
“Combining almost 50 interviews and hundreds of sources, Closing
the Slaughterhouse is the true, inside story of death penalty
abolition in Virginia.”
Dale signed this copy of the book especially for you.
We are most grateful for the investment that you have made in our work
to abolish the death penalty in Virginia.
If you have any questions or suggestions about our work, please do not

Here is a brief overview of the book:
“For over 400 years Virginia’s death penalty embraced a ‘finality
over fairness' philosophy, ensnaring many innocent and undeserving
victims under the bogus pretexts of ‘offering closure’ or being ‘tough
on crime.’
“Death was the Virginia way. Now, thanks to five decades of diligent
work by dozens of abolitionists, advocates, capital defense attorneys,
faith leaders, and more, it’s over.
“Combining almost 50 interviews and hundreds of sources, Closing
the Slaughterhouse is the true, inside story of death penalty
abolition in Virginia.”
