The Rayner Goddard Act of Courage
Award is an honorific use by the comrades of Unit 1012. It
is use to describe and honor the government official who defended capital
punishment.
May 29 was
chosen as it was the same date that Chief Justice Rayner Goddard passed away in
1971. He was a strong supporter of the death penalty and he cared for the
victims and their families. He gave speeches in the House of Lords, defending
the use of the death penalty and fighting against abolition.
We, the
comrades of Unit 1012: The VFFDP, honors and respects him. We wish that more
judges or government official can follow his courageous character.
To be awarded the
Chief Justice Rayner Goddard award, the candidate has to fulfill several

- The candidate can

either give a speech or write an article defending capital punishment.

We, the comrades of Unit 1012, will

for awarding them and honoring them.
