Chris and the other victims deserve Justice, and that Justice can only be that William Levea is not allowed Parole.

Jeff Wood is scheduled for execution on August 24, 2016. We need to persuade the Texas governor and members of the Texas Board of Pardons and Paroles to commute the death sentence to a term in prison. I have known Jeff's family for several years. His sister Terri Been is leading the effort to #savejeffwood. She has testified to the Texas Legislature to ban executions under the Law of Parties and spoken out many times to save her brother from an unjust execution.

I hope this petition convinces the Governor of the significant support for my pardon and highlights my civic contributions. My art should represent Tennessee nationally and internationally. At present I cannot accept shows outside the US. I have also lost prestigious personal and professional national opportunities due to the felonies’ stigma. https://www.facebook.com/Please-Pardon-Artist-James-Andrew-Hearn-661515917345058/

Kenneth D. Thomas is serving a life sentence for a crime the Courts are clearly aware that he did not commit. The only witness to the crime has appeared before the Court informing them that he falsely accused Mr. Thomas in efforts to shorten his own prison sentence.

In October, a group of concerned citizens told Karen Keith that we do not want the Juvenile Justice Center in North Tulsa. They found a group of pastors to sign on to the plan to build anyway - against the wishes of the community. Tell the commissioners once and for all, we do not want this type of "economic development" in North Tulsa!

I am starting this petition because I am tired of rapists being given short, uneven and unproductive sentences for a crime that forever impacts the lives of their victims. The judicial system has never treated women's lives with the same importance as men's, and the classification of Hate Crime would give women the statistical (FBI) and criminal status along with other protected classes.

As a former rape crisis advocate I am horrified at the slap on the wrist, a six-month jail sentence, that the Stanford rapist was issued. Twenty-year-old Brock Allen Turner was convicted by a jury of his peers of raping an unconscious, intoxicated 23-year-old woman behind a dumpster on Stanford's campus after a Kappa Alpha fraternity party. Turner stopped his assault when two male graduate students intervened. The fact that he is a white Stanford athlete should not grant him permission to get away with violence against women. Judge Aaron Persky only sentenced Turner to six months of jail time because of the "damage" that jail could do to him. He IS NOT the victim here. Tuner was charged with three felony counts, assault with intent to commit rape of an intoxicated or unconscious person, sexual penetration of an intoxicated person and sexual penetration of an unconscious person. These assaults have and will continue to cause his victim untold phyiscal and emotional damage. The victim addressed Turner at his sentencing: "Your life is not over; you have decades of years ahead to rewrite your story. The world is huge, it is so much bigger than Palo Alto and Stanford, and you will make a space for yourself in it where you can be useful and happy. But right now, you do not get to shrug your shoulders and be confused anymore. You do not get to pretend that there were no red flags. You have been convicted of violating me, intentionally, forcibly, sexually, with malicious intent, and all you can admit to is consuming alcohol. Do not talk about the sad way your life was upturned because alcohol made you do bad things. Figure out how to take responsibility for your own conduct." We call on the Palo Alto Courthouse to revisit Turner's sentencing to make his punishment fit the crime.

Sentenced to 90 years has already served 23 years first offense selling narcotics in Virginia all while in a wheelchair. This is a petition for justice, freedom and second chances. Who are we that we cannot give one another a second chance? We all have a responsibility to one another but that responsibility must be laid and decided on the basis of life, and not by the standards of one's view of life. I know to have a second chance you must have humility you must become humble and I believe in my heart and mind that Eugene Smalls has been humbled, having served 21 years in prison on a 90 year sentence all while in a wheelchair, on a first offense for selling drugs-a non-violent offense. He never harmed or committed any crime where there was a loss of life. This is beyond justice, and it can be viewed as cruel and unusual punishment.

On May 20th, 2016, twelve people were arrested for taking a short cut through an open field that had no fence, and no visible "No Trespassing" sign, that led over train tracks to a sidewalk onto Australian Avenue. We are asking that the trespassing charges be dropped on all 12 that were arrested, who were 4 Journalists and 8 Anonymous activists. Not one person that came to peacefully protest for Justice for Corey Jones that day ever intended on breaking any laws, or to instigate any aggression or provoke law enforcement, which was obvious, since none resisted arrest. We ask that you please consider recommending these charges be dropped.

My children and I need my husband as much as he needs us. We are facing many more years and the strain is hard for our children to bear. They will have an improved closeness with their father that will benefit their well-being. And our family will be stronger and hopeful in the future. Our goal is to get 1,000+ signatures. We can do it!

The petition is about inhumane heat levels affecting guards and inmates and their families and friends. There'd be less deaths, less health conditions and less turn key in employees. As well as less law suits. If they can keep conditions at a certain temperature in the other seasons why is the summer any different, When this is the most crucial month in Texas.

I believe whistleblowers like Manning should be rewarded, not punished, for exposing crimes, like the unnecessary killing of civilians and journalists. The Obama administration has punished more whistleblowers than any other president. By commuting Manning's sentence, Obama can show he values honesty over suppression of the truth.
