For almost two years, our brother Robert has been detained awaiting trial. Our family has endured a tough year, having to bury immediate family members all within a close span of time, and we have not been able to fully recover mentally or financially.

We are asking the community to help us raise enough money to provide the proper counsel for my brother. To prove his innocence, and return home to lead a life caring and providing for his daughter, who needs her father, and to also have the opportunity to spend time with his 91-year-old mother, along with his siblings and the rest of our family. We do not want him to fall victim to the system simply because we cannot afford counsel. We love our brother and we won't give up on him.

We have faith and we know he would appreciate every ounce of help you all are willing to give and so would we. Any amount is greatly appreciated.
