Help Me Fight for My Rights – Legal Fees Fundraiser

Hey everyone,

My name is Derion, and I’m reaching out with an open heart and a hopeful spirit. Right now, I’m facing a legal situation that requires the support of an attorney—but as many of us know, legal help doesn’t come cheap.

Recently, I had an experience with law enforcement where I was taken advantage of in a way that shook me. I was cooperative, respectful, and trusting—because that’s who I am. But that trust was used against me. The police took advantage of my naivety and lack of legal knowledge, leading to a situation that now requires professional legal help to protect my rights and my future.

As a professional dancer and longtime bartender, I’ve always been someone who shows up for others—whether it’s through a vibe on the dance floor, a perfectly made cocktail, or just being a friend when someone needs one. Now, I’m humbly asking my community to show up for me.

I’m raising $4000 to cover attorney fees so I can protect myself and navigate this situation with the support I need and deserve. Every dollar helps, and whether you donate, share this privately, or send love my way—it all means the world.

This is a personal and sensitive matter, so I kindly ask that you only share the link via private messages or DMs. No public posts or tagging, please.

To make this journey more creative and connected, I’ll also be hosting a dance class. Keep an eye out if you want to support in that way!

If you want to confirm that this isn't a scam please feel free to Call/FaceTime or whatever makes you feel comfortable!

Thank you for reading. Thank you for caring. And thank you for believing in me. I got this—with your help.

With love and gratitude,

Derion Johnson
