I demand justice for the death of my stepson, who was shot several times. We don't watn the Chicago Police setting his case to the side. Give me and my family some closure. It's killing us. Thanks for your time. We would appreciate if you could help us get justice by getting a petition for people to sign.

This petition is about the unjust incarceration of this young man, ripped from his little ones just to justify and satisfy our Governor after receiving heavy criticism for not having caught the I-10 shooter over the summer. Shootings have continued and the "evidence" has been changed so many times that nothing adds up, except Merritt's alibi's, which his lawyers are using to fight for his release as well! **** I have been following this story ever since it started. I am a mother, a wife and creator of http://fightbackandwin.com. I believe in fighting for your rights and helping those who cannot. Justice is not always fair and almost never affordable. We have reached out to all news media locally and some national news agencies as well, in an attempt to get contact info. Myself along with a few others, some even out of the country, have rallied on social media ever since the beginning to try and get Leslie a fair bail as it was obvious to us that this was clearly a huge act of injustice! Our social media page for support for Leslie is: https://www.facebook.com/groups/428023417400072/?ref=bookmarks Please feel free to contact via his Facebook support page or through this platform. Thank you for any act of kindness and empathy as we try to gain support for Leslie so he can be with his family during the holidays!

This petition is to underscore the obvious need for white police officers to undergo psychiatric and psychological evaluation and treatment for their unreasonable phobias about Black men, (women), and children. The past four years especially there have been incidents where there was no basis for fear. I am an African American female and am tired of watching the murders by white law enforcers and hearing their same lame justification for murder.

The unfairness of the system, the sentence given life/w out parole, enabling the commissioners to keep inmate in prison without justice. No family help, and mental stress to inmate to find help in system

Improve Americas entire judicial system, and impose lighter sentences for nonviolent crimes!

Victims and survivors of childhood sexual abuse continue to have trauma throughout his/her adulthood. We need to protect our children from known pedophiles and pass a law to remove all statute of limitations that protect the offender and not the victim. Please sign and share this petition so we can help victims and survivors get the justice that they deserve. House Speaker Lee Chatfield information is below. We need you and your friends to call, write or email Speaker of the House, Tom Leonard to let him know you support a change in the law. His contact information is below. Thank you: Lee Chatfield,Speaker of the House [email protected] Ph: 517-373-2629 162 Capitol Building Lansing, MI 48933

Why do we kill people who are killing people to show that killing people is wrong?

Earlier this year, Delaware’s Senate voted to repeal the death penalty, but the bill has been stuck in the house Judiciary Committee since May, and several legislators have refused to allow the bill to go to the House floor for a vote. An issue as serious as the death penalty deserves an up or down vote in front of the full House! Here are a few reasons why Delaware’s death penalty is fatally flawed: -->In Delaware, Black defendants who kill White victims are seven times as likely to receive the death penalty as Black defendants who kill Black victims. -->155 men and women have been released from death rows across the country after evidence of their wrongful convictions emerged. Delaware remains at risk of executing an innocent person. -->Study after study shows that the death penalty costs far more than sentencing individuals to life in prison without parole. -->The death penalty traps victims’ families in a decades-long cycle of uncertainty, court hearings, and waiting. In contrast, a sentence of life in prison without parole is a severe punishment that begins immediately and avoids the delays and media circus that come with a death sentence--allowing victims’ families to move on rather than forcing them to endure years of waiting for an execution that may never come.

My son was given a 25-year to Life enhancement on a 6-year sentence for a total of 31 years to Life at the age of 18 for assault with a firearm with no fatalities. It was his first offense and he was given an indeterminate sentence.

I am demanding that the Houston police department and all police across the nation are required to wear body cameras to stop this modern day genocide of our Black men and all other people who have been senselessly killed by law enforcement. It's time to take a stand against ALL crime. But most importantly, it's time to take a stand together on decriminalizing or neighborhood and protecting the inhabitants from ALL criminals, including the police.

I am starting this petition to shed light on the over-incarceration of poor innocent African American women who can not afford fair legal representation. For the details of her case go to tonyalucasisinnocent.org

Due to the low rates of recidivism for older adults, as compared to younger groups of paroled individuals, we support the establishment of a program to consider the release of geriatric inmates who do not pose a public safety risk. Currently, Bill A2470, which would support such a program, is sitting at committee at the NYS Assembly and we wish to vocalize our support to our local Assembly persons and State Senators for signing such a bill into law.
