Support Clemency: Help Reunite a Family After 18 Years

Donation protected
My nephew has been unjustly imprisoned for the last 18 years. He was arrested when he was barely a teenager, based on the testimony of a false witness, and was held without trial for seven years. Despite this, he was charged using the same false testimony and sentenced to life in prison without the possibility of parole. Over the years, he has missed many precious moments, including the funeral of his own sister, my niece. Very recently, he also missed the funeral of his cousin, my son Daniel.

But even within the confines of prison, my nephew has not wasted a single moment. He has earned two master’s degrees and is about to graduate magna cum laude with a Ph.D. in Counseling. He is a religious leader, a mentor to many, and has dedicated his time to educating young people. He has proven to be an invaluable asset to his community, even behind bars.

Now, we are asking for clemency, an opportunity to bring him home, where he belongs. But in order for his case to be reviewed, we need an expert lawyer, and that’s where your support comes in. The funds raised will go directly to legal fees, allowing us to fight for his freedom and give him the chance to reunite with his family.
Please help us bring my nephew home after 18 long years.

Mi sobrino ha estado encarcelado injustamente durante los últimos 18 años. Fue arrestado cuando apenas era un adolescente, basándose en el testimonio de un testigo falso, y estuvo detenido sin juicio durante siete años. A pesar de esto, fue acusado utilizando el mismo testimonio falso y condenado a cadena perpetua sin posibilidad de libertad condicional. A lo largo de los años, ha perdido muchos momentos preciosos, incluido el funeral de su propia hermana, mi sobrina. Muy recientemente, también se perdió el funeral de su primo, mi hijo Daniel.

Pero incluso dentro de los confines de la prisión, mi sobrino no ha desperdiciado ni un solo momento. Ha obtenido dos maestrías y está a punto de graduarse magna cum laude con un doctorado en Consejería. Es un líder religioso, un mentor para muchos, y ha dedicado su tiempo a educar a los jóvenes. Ha demostrado ser un activo invaluable para su comunidad, incluso tras las rejas.

Ahora, estamos pidiendo clemencia, una oportunidad para traerlo a casa, donde pertenece. Pero para que su caso sea revisado, necesitamos un abogado experto, y ahí es donde entra en juego su apoyo. Los fondos recaudados se destinarán directamente a los honorarios legales, lo que nos permitirá luchar por su libertad y darle la oportunidad de reunirse con su familia.
Por favor, ayúdenos a traer a mi sobrino a casa. Después de 18 años…
