I support this petition. It can seem so easy to convict someone often times on little to no REAL evidence, but it can take a lifetime (or longer) to find the truth sometimes, WHY?
I support this petition.I HAVE A BROTHER WHO IS SENTENCED TO LIFE IN PRISON WHEN THEY HAD NO SUBSTANTIAL EVIDENCE TO ACCUSED HIM ALSO DIDN'T HAVE A LAWYER TO TAKE HIS CASE BUT A APPOINT COURT LAWYER IN WHICH WAS NOT PREPARED,HE DID NOT HAVE A FAIR TRIAL AND NEVER GOT THE CHANCE TO SPEAK ON HIS BEHALF,ALL THEY HAD WAS STATEMENT FROM FRIENDS OF HIS THAT WHERE ALSO INVOLVE,I REALLY WANT TO HELP MY BROTHER.
I support this petition. I support this petition, because first i'm a victim. To make a long story short i got charged for retaliation or obstruction because i stoped my brother from taking a plea and the DA got mad and filed false allegations on me and my brother got 90 yrs. for not taking her plea deal. Also in his case there was no evidence agian he say she say and a bunch of people who didnt like that he was married to a cucasian lady to testify against him saying that he confessed that he sexually abused his daughter. Also this was his first time ever in trouble never even had a speeding ticket.Texas laws have to change and jury duty has to be taken more serious. You should be charged with a crime if your sleeping during a trial!!! This is excessive punishment and what makes it worst is a week later a guy was charged and plead guilty to sexually assualting a 12 yr. old and recieved 5yrs. probation.
Too many people are wrongfully convicted. The blame is put on the police and the judicial system. If they dont convict anyone, they look bad and they are not doing their jobs. Many people are forced into confessing to crimes they didnt commit with the promise of shorter sentences. I think these practices need to stop. Innocent people and their families are suffering because of this. I support this petition!
I support this pettion because my brother in law Pedro Santos was accused and convicted of conspiracy to comit kidnaping and was sentenced to 12 years in a Connecticut State prison.Mean while the people who actually commited the crime are in prison and appologize to the family saying that he was not involved and had never even known him.Yet they won\'t help him out in court to testify that he was not even there.And is now serving a 12 year sentence for no reason.Please let me know what can be done for this poor boy.If there is any hope for justice for the innocent
Hemmingway saisi was wrongfully incarserated due to attorney represation, beaten in prison, and now is being harrased by the parole system in NJ.Yes I support this petition
My son has been in prison for ten years for a crime he didnot do. The investigation was batched, so was the trial. We didnot have the money to hire an aattorney. We had to use a court appointed lawyer. Needles to say. It has been a living hell. We need more help for the poor and needy.
Yes I support this. I dont think innocent people should be in jail or prison for something they did NOT do i would like to see justic done on behalf of these inocent men and women teens who are wrongfully accused of crimes. Lets help them out and get them out as quickly as we can and lets make a law that you have to prove they did this crime and not make it up beause they want to convict anyone. stop these corrupted police officers and do an investigation on them
Let us remember what it feels like to be wrongfully accused -- when we know we did not do it --i.e., accused of cheating on your spouse, taking the ink pen, in school and a student tells a lie on you, etc. it did and does not feel good.Thank you.
My boyfriend was also wrongfully convicted, and talked into signing a statement written by the authorities of Illinios. He spent almost five years in different Illinios facilities, and now is a registered sex offender.
My nephew is a victim of this brutal judicial system, he was just sentenced to 2 years in prison although he is mentally incapacatated. we could certainly use your help
