Kelly is a 23-year-old transgender asylum seeker who has been locked up in immigration jail for nearly three years. Kelly is suffering medical neglect and was put in solitary confinement for four months solely because of her gender identity. U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) has the power to release her immediately but refuses to let her go. Kelly is suffering tremendously, both physically and mentally. Additionally, her unnecessarily prolonged detention is exacerbating the trauma she has experienced as a domestic violence and human trafficking survivor. During her nearly three years in detention, Kelly has never been given a bond hearing. All Kelly wants is to live safely and without fear. Unfortunately, there are many more transgender individuals like Kelly who are unjustly locked up in immigration jail while they apply for asylum, and are experiencing inhumane treatment because of their gender identity. Kelly needs your help. Sign the petition to demand that ICE use its discretion to #FreeKelly now!

This petition is designed to bring justice to Delicia Carmichael, a young woman who has survived extensive sexual abuse and sex trafficking. Delicia is serving an extreme 20-year sentence for offenses that were a direct result of her having been sex-trafficked, and in which no one was physically harmed. Last June, Texas Governor Abbot vetoed a bill that would have helped survivors like Delicia receive a commutation, or sentence reduction. Please sign this petition to tell Governor Abbot to immediately release Delicia to a halfway house where she can receive the treatment and care she needs, and where she can learn the skills to be an independent and valued member of society. Delicia deserves empathy, support, and a second chance - not further suffering and punishment. Delicia's background is riddled with sexual abuse, trafficking, neglect, and abandonment, first by her family, and then by numerous State institutions. When Delicia was 5, the Department of Family Protective Services (DFPS) discovered her living out of a car in the custody of her grandfather, who was sexually abusing her. In and out of foster homes, she wound up on the street, where her mother, who had lost parental rights, introduced her to an adult male who began to traffic her and engage her in other criminal activities. Just after she turned 15, Delicia participated in the incident that resulted in her arrest and prosecution. Her trafficker received a lighter sentence for the same incident. Delicia's history of trauma related to sexual abuse and sex trafficking was never investigated, discovered, or considered in her criminal case. Indeed, despite the fact that the State has long been responsible for her well-being, her exploitation was never fully discovered, and she has never received appropriate treatment. That failure is ongoing: Delicia is not receiving appropriate care for her past traumas in prison now, and if she serves her sentence in full, she will spend another 17 years in this arrested condition. Texas must do better. Delicia is a strong and intelligent person who deserves a chance to experience independence, safety, and joy in free society. It may be too late for the State to protect Delicia from sexual exploitation, but it can finally recognize Delicia’s history, shield her from further harm, and enable her to heal and thrive in adulthood. Please sign this petition to tell Governor Abbot to commute Delicia's sentence and provide for her immediate release to an appropriate halfway house.

I was stopped by CPD while residing in Carthage. The end result was I got tickets for improper registration and no insurance. I moved to Joplin before my court day and honestly had so much other stuff going on that I'd forgotten all about it, honestly. Well, I was stopped by JPD and got arrested. I spent a few days in Joplin city jail, then got transferred to Jasper county jail where I also spent a few days. When in Jasper county jail, the conditions were beyond horrible; and I mean for anyone. But I don't wish to share any names or specifics; however, there was an incident that I heard about where a young woman did not only attempt to, but she hung herself. She passed out; later came to in a puddle of blood, her chin cracked, her neck all messed up and bruised up horribly. Needless to say, she wanted nothing more than to die, with a whole beautiful life ahead of her. And that's what that place does to most people. All the disease and filth and hunger. No wonder people constantly go mad. Think about this. Our Jasper county jail is only teaching people to be lazy and to not take care of any responsibility at all but then they expect them to get out and just work and be responsible. That's just insane if you ask me.

My entire family has been affected, especially his mom. Please help; we just want justice and peace! He is not able to work and provide for his family and this is also his year to graduate high school and his teachers are calling constantly. We need Timotheus free now! He is innocent! He is constantly denied bond!

Going downtown Minneapolis is dangerous, robberies are up 53% and it seems that a weekend doesn't go by where people are shot in downtown Minneapolis. It doesn't have to be this way.

We demand that GoFundMe immediately suspend the "Officer Daniel Pantaleo's family help fund," fundraiser that is currently being hosted on your site. Daniel Pantaleo murdered Eric Garner. I watched the video, I heard Garner say "I can't breathe," 11 times, but Pantaleo refused to stop. I watched Eric Garner die, over allegedly selling loose cigarettes, a petty misdemeanor at best. GoFundMe needs to immediately suspend the "Officer Daniel Pantaleo's family help fund," fundraiser for the following reasons: 1. The medical examiner ruled Eric Garner's death a homicide. 2. The NYPD's administrative judge ruled that Pantaleo should be fired for his use of the illegal chokehold, which led to the untimely death of Eric Garner. Stating that Pantaleo was "untruthful," in his description of the events that took place. 3. NYPD Commissioner James O'Neill fired Pantaleo for his role in the murder of Eric Garner on August 19, 2019. GoFundMe's policy clearly states you prohibit "items that promote hate, violence, racial intolerance, or the financial exploitation of a crime," and Daniel Pantaleo committed murder on video, and was fired from his job because of it. Pantaleo has been receiving a salary the past five years, and GoFundMe should not continue to allow him to profit off of the murder of an innocent man! GoFundMe needs to refund all the money collected, and stop this fundraiser right now!

Inmates lose everything when they are sentenced to serve time in prison. Many lose their families as well due to no longer having the ability to remain close with their spouse or children through their sentence. Many inmates become more aggressive and stop caring because they have nothing to look forward to anymore. If inmates were allowed to have family/conjugal visits to help keep their bond with their spouse and their children, they would have something to look forward to. They would be less aggressive because they would not want to risk losing spending time with their spouse and children. Let's stop taking everything away from the inmates and let them remain close to their families.

I am doing this so my State of Ohio does the right thing!
