About Fourteen Days in May

This documentary tells the true story of the countdown to the execution of Edward Earl Johnson, a young African-American who was put to death in the gas chamber of Mississippi’s state penitentiary on 20 May 1987.

Convicted of the murder of a white police officer, Edward protested his innocence until his death. Reprieve’s founder and director Clive Stafford Smith represented Edward in his final appeals and fought to save his life right up to the moment of his execution.
