20 Years Innocent on Death Row: No Compensation

Donation protected
NOTE: This project has been under way for over 18 months, so while we've raised a fair amount of money, there are ongoing expenditures, and we're just a little more than half way to the original goal. Please don't think we're sitting on a pile of dough. We're not. Thanks!

Derrick Jamison is one of the sweetest men you could ever meet, and he needs our help. Derrick survived 20 years on Ohio's death row for a crime he had nothing to do with. Derrick has been free since 2005, but he never was able to receive compensation from the state of Ohio.
 
Now Derrick is getting old, and he's not in the greatest of health. He's been living in a hotel room in Tampa. A group of us are coming together to help Derrick move back to Ohio and set him up in a sustainable situation so he can have the support of family and friends and a decent place to call home.
 
Read more about Derrick here and here , or just Google his name: Derrick Jamison.
 
We are each personally and organizationally invested in this. Please join us as generously as you are able,
