Rep. Barbara Lee's history of defending convicted murderers resurfaces after Senate announcement
Fox News
California Congresswoman and Senate-hopeful Barbara Lee wrote a letter in 2001 claiming that several convicted murderers were framed.
Lee also suggested that convicted murderer Mumia Abu-Jamal was set up in the 1981 killing of a Philadelphia police officer. Aubrie Spady is a Freelance Production Assistant for Fox News Digital.
Lee and other Congressional Black Caucus members sent a report to the United Nations high commissioner for human rights claiming that in Abu-Jamal's case "neutralization occurred by falsely creating the appearance that he was in commission of a crime he did not commit, to put him in prison."
