Arizona's 23-52 Prostitution Law lets officers arrest women for no more reason than "looking suspicious" or asking if they're police, even if there's zero evidence that they're sex workers.

Rape is a traumatizing experience for the victim. It is a brutal and dehumanizing violation with lifelong damaging effects. The violence and humiliation involved can take years to recover from, sometimes the victim never recovers. A gang rape is often described as an attack involving 2 or more rapists. This is a life altering experience for any victim, especially a minor of 13 years of age. A child is forcibly raped by 2 adult men in Florence, SC on the evening of 02/08/2013. The victim's mother did what she felt was the correct thing to do and contacted the Florence Police Department. Instead of an eager to serve response, the mother and the rape victim were disrespected and treated in an unprofessional manner. Adding insult to injury, there was not a thorough investigation of the crime scene and the perpetrators are allowed to walk the streets among law abiding citizens. Over the past year the family has been bullied and harassed by the alleged rapists and their families. Due to the poor judgement made by the investigating officer; the rapists felt above the law. Their bullying and harassment has caused the victim and her family to move four times and withdraw the victim from public school to be homeschooled to escape the constant bullying. The victim who should be focusing on learning algebra or planning her next slumber party must live with the constant fear of additional attacks and victimization. The child suffers from nightmares, bullying, fear and distrust of the system created to "protect and serve" the community she lives in. Her mother feeling helpless and not knowing where else to turn has turned to me ... a child advocate, a victim professional, a crime fighter, a survivor but most importantly a MOTHER. A mother to children who I would give my life to protect. As a mother, it is important to me that violent child rapists and offenders are brought to justice and removed from our streets. As a citizen, it is important to me that the institutions created to protect our families; do just that...protect.

Contact the Florence Police Department and ask to speak to Maj Carlos Raines at 843-676-8800 1.

SO MANY MEN AND WOMEN ARE PROSECUTED FOR DRUG POSSESSION AND DRUG TRAFFIC. THE BANK SHOULD NOT BE TREATED ANY DIFFERENTLY! HOLD THEM RESPONSIBLE FOR THEIR ACTIONS!!!!!!!

I am starting this petition because Black People as a whole is not JUSTLY represented in the court of law within the United States of America. Time after time, we have repeatedly seen those Racist Terrorist People go free using the “Stand your Ground Laws.” Time after time, when a Black Person is murdered by a Racist Terrorist Person, the dead must prove that it was a Racist Terrorist Act, not excluding their innocence. We saw this happen in many cases, not excluding Trayvon Martin murder case, the White Male who murdered a Black Teenager because his music was too loud and he is also using the, “Stand your Ground Laws,” the Black Teenager who was found dead in the gym whereby he was gutted out, another Black Young Female upcoming third-year Law Student found gutted out, the Black Young Lady who was in a car accident who suspiciously left her vehicle and ended up on a Racist Terrorist Person Porch murdered, another young Black Male who had a similar incident that happened, another Black Female who was serving in the arm forces murdered and her body was ruled as an suicide, and the list goes on and on and on. You may check with NEWSONE for many, many incidents by which innocent Black People are being found murdered. Very seldom one will hear anything about a Black Person who was found murdered, not excluding, their bodies being gutted out. For more details, check with NEWSONE. Thank you. PLEASE sign this petition to end violence, and discrimination against Black People.

I am Patti Jones the aunt to the Late Anthony Clayton Lester: TONY. Tony lost his life quite tragically on July 12, 2010 while in the custodial care of the Arizona Department. Tony was clinically diagnosed a paranoid schizophrenic, so SEVERALLY mentally ill that he had gone through a lengthy rule 11 court proceedings to restore him to a minimal level of competency The Arizona Department of Corrections ruled his death a "Highly Preventable Suicide". From the moment of Tony's tragic HORRIFIC death I have been on an incessant passion driven mission to expose the DEPLORABLE mental health care conditions within our Arizona Prisons. My sister had filed a Wrongful death lawsuit, which has recently been settled out of court to the sum of 100,000.00 dollars. With this settlement the State of Arizona and Arizona Department of Corrections allowed judgement to be taken, upon all claims made against it in this action, in favor of Plaintiff Eleanor Lester (Tony's Mom). If one would observe since Director Ryan has been appointed as Director the suicide rate within the Arizona Department of Corrections has doubled the national average. Last July of 2013 Arizona House Minority Leader Rep. Chad Campbell COURAGEOUSLY stepped forward after he viewed a series of COMPELLING investigative reports done by KPNX 12 News, seasoned investigative journalist Ms. Wendy Halloran: " Watching Tony Die". It was Ms. Halloran's compelling reports that truly exposed the DEPLORABLE mental health care conditions that have been allowed to exist for decades. It was several of Ms. Halloran's reports that initiated the filing of the ACLU, National Prison Project's along with the Prison Law Offices Class Action Law Suit. Rep. Campbell has asked for his fellow legislators to support his call for the Immediate Resignation of Arizona Department of Corrections Director Charles Ryan with very little support from Arizona Legislators. With the signing of this petition the people can and will send a POWERFUL message that can and will speak volumes! Here is support as to WHY Director Ryan MUST be removed from his appointed position: Reasons to call for Director Ryan’s resignation 1. Security failures. A recent audit by the State Auditor General found disturbing security violations at state prisons, including broken perimeter alarm systems that staff ignored and a failure to keep an inventory of keys. 2. Personnel problems. News reports have indicated that there is low morale at state prisons and that employee turnover is very high. The Arizona Correctional Peace Officers Association submitted a letter of “no confidence” regarding Director Charles Ryan. 3. Criminal behavior. The Arizona Department of Corrections Inspector General has documented hundreds of acts of criminal conduct by DOC employees, including DUI and domestic violence. 4. Pattern of mismanagement and lack of leadership. One examples of mismanagement is the awarding of the medical care contract to Wexford, then rescinding that contract and re-awarding it to Corizon. Both companies have faced controversy and accusations of poor medical services. 5. Conflict of interest. The Department of Corrections has close ties to the private prison industry as well as private health care providers. One example is Chuck Coughlin’s relationship with Corrections Corporation of America (CCA), which has a contract with the state to provide private prisons. Coughlin has a well-known relationship with the governor, who appointed Director Ryan to his position. Another example is Director Ryan’s ties to Terry Stewart who works with Advanced Correctional Management, which lobbies for private prison expansion, as well as Stewart’s work with Corizon, which was eventually awarded the statewide contract to provide health care to inmates. 6. High suicide rates. Suicide rates at state prisons were 60 percent higher than the national average between 2010 and 2012. 7. Poor medical care. Inmate medical care has been severely neglected. Egregious examples of inmates being given grossly inadequate health care have been outlined in the class action lawsuit against DOC. 8. Abuse and neglect of inmates. There has been a pattern of abuse and neglect of inmates, including Marcia Powell who died after being left outside in the sun for many hours and Tony Lester who was allowed to bleed to death in prison while correctional officers watched and did nothing to help him. 9. Private prison problems. In addition to the conflict of interest noted above, Director Ryan has also failed to properly manage private prison contracts and supervise the private prisons. The inmates escaping from Kingman is one example of his failure to oversee the private prisons. Additionally, private prisons often cost more than state-run prisons, and DOC has failed to hold the private prison companies accountable for the terms of their contracts with the state. With the signing of this petition MANY more LIVES can and will be saved!! The PEOPLE will have their VOICES heard. This is AMERICA we MUST not and WILL not let another AMERICAN life be treated as such!! http://www.azcentral.com/news/articles/20130222tony-lester-doc-video.html http://www.azcentral.com/video/2183395260001 http://www.azcentral.com/video/#/News/Rep.+Chad+Campbell+calls+for+resignation+of+Arizona+Department+of+Corrections+Director+Charles+Ryan/40280768001/35150280001/2562549084001 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vRf2AvUu0QA Read the executive summary of “The Treatment of Persons with Mental Illness in Prisons and Jails: A State Survey" and the full report on the TACReports.org website.

http://abclocal.go.com/ktrk/story?section=news/national_world&id=9506990 Thirteen years ago Mr Anderson committed a crime of armed robbery. The courts released him pending sentencing and instructed him to wait until they contacted him. Thirteen years later they realized that they never sent him to prison. In these thirteen years Mr Anderson has changed his life and been raising his children. Demand that he be released as the error was not his and he has been rehabilitated!

Religious freedom and due process of law are the cornerstones of American tradition, ideals, law and governance. Both are being violated in the indefinite, coercive imprisonment without trial, bail or visitors of Reverend Roger Christie. Every day that Roger remains imprisoned is an insult to the sacrifices made for our freedom to farm "every herb bearing seed" and the fundamental human right to trial before punishment.

My husband John was falsely accused of a horrible sexual crime with no evidence at all and only the say so of a troubled teen and after thousands of dollars spent and many lives being tortured thru this event the evidence will set him free but not without innumerable amounts of suffering to all family members involved.John is only 1 person among the 79% of the wrongfully accused of this horrible crime. The bad laws that allow this to happen needs to be changed.

Mr. Winston Campbell , a great contributor to the Kingdom of God and the community, has been incarcerated at the Sing Sing Correctional Facility for more than 10 years now. Four years ago He applied for an immediate appearance before the board of parole for possible release. In February 2012 he received response that the application remains under review and that the application is receiving the careful attention it merits. The Church Ministry and The New York Communities need to be impacted by him. We need him out of Prison.

The wilful refusal to consider pardoning Governor Don Siegelman of Alambama.

The United States has the highest per capita prison population in the world. Our rights and freedoms are rapidly being taken away as corporations find ways to profit from destroying individual rights and from the imprisonment of as many individuals as they can. The "prison for profit" corporations are destroying many peoples lives, destroying families, instituting ways to force laborers to work in unsafe conditions for virtually no pay (legal slave labor), and is causing many non-violent individuals such as illegal migrant workers to be be imprisoned for excessively long periods of time. This country was once a shining example of freedom and justice. It is rapidly becoming a prison state where corrupt corporations are able to profit from the destruction of countless lives.
