Introducing the New Website for Felony Murder Elimination Project
Heidi • August 9, 2025
You may have noticed the updated logo for Felony Murder Elimination Project. Over the last several months, our team has been working with designers to create an updated website. Today, we’d like to formally introduce you to the new website for the Felony Murder Elimination Project!
Additionally, we’ve updated our website address: https://fmeproject.org so make sure you update your bookmarks.
Feel free to spend some time browsing our new website:
- What the felony murder doctrine is
- The people, families and communities unjustly impacted by this deeply unfair and unjust law
- Statistics and resources
- Who we are and what we do
- The policy work we’ve done through our advocacy
- Our blog page, with news featuring stories on felony murder and related criminal justice topics
- How you can take action and help as a volunteer for our organization
This will be the last blog posted on this website as we fully make the transition to our new online home.
As always, we are so grateful for the support and dedication our supporters show toward our shared goals of a fairer and more just criminal justice system.
