Christoper Williams is innocent there wasn't a fair trial, no DNA against him he wasn't competent to stand trial..he's mentally impaired and was found guilty in thirty minutes I'm asking that he has a fair trial and that a innocent man be released

I'm starting this petition in the hope that the proper authorities will conduct a fair investigation of the murder of Jesus Huerta. We are not satisfied with the explanation that he shot himself in the head while his hands were cuffed behind his back.

Why? Because first-time offenders should not be held to the same stringent parole eligibility requirements as repeat and habitual offenders. Also, a lack of maturity and under developed sense of responsibility are found in youth more often than in adults and are more understandable among the young. These qualities often result in impetuous and ill-considered actions and decisions. Essentially, both categories of offenders (the first-timers and youthful) deserve less punishment.

The state on a whole suffers when it insists on holding people down specifically, tax payers, commerce and families are the ones adversely effected by housing offenders for excessive number of years.

To decrease the overcrowding and population of the 3-G offenders in Texas prisons.

I am a patient advocate. Chris is not a drug kingpin, he is a patient, with a family. When the police can go in without a warrant, which Long Beach does on a regular basis, it is a police state, something needs to be done. We have appealed to many, and nobody in government is listening.

The United States is currently in a full blown prescription drug and heroin epidemic and Arizona has the 6th highest number of deaths. Arizona needs to step up its efforts to save lives by putting in place laws that encourage calling 911 for a quick response by emergency responders.

Far to often police officers are caught on video abusing or killing citizens illegally but nothing happens to them. They will get off, be suspended or in rare cases fired only to get hired at another police station with a clean record. Dr.,Nurses and Aids lose their licence to practice health care if they abuse or kill patients. This should be the same for police if your not going to prosecute them at least forbid them from ever policing society. they make all cops look bad. It's time to clean out the trash so good cops can shine once again, before we lose all respect for authority.

I have been personally affected by the current child support system in a negative manner. The current law is outdated, unfair, and in many instances, unconstitutional. Reform is needed so that the modern family and our diverse situations can be correctly addressed. This will ensure that proper guidelines are being mandated and followed. No child deserves to be subjected to witnessing their parent fall victim to the child support system.

We are Sociology major students at California State University, Chico. We are taking part in Professor Paul Lopez’ Sociology 350 class, Ethnic and Race Relations, and we have a petition we would like to bring to your attention. The petition is to make the members of a jury represent, as best as possible, both the plaintiff and the defendant; that is, if the indicted are a female and a male, then half the jury should be female and half male; if the indicted are black and white, again, jury should represent both parties. We have had enough of the all-white (or mostly white) jury deciding the fate of all, especially minority populations that overwhelmingly crowd the prisons. Over the years there has been a great disparity among races in our prison systems and we believe this has to do, in part, with the fact that there continues to be racial discrimination when selecting jury members. Across the United States people of color are underrepresented on juries as a result of racially biased use of peremptory strikes; this is especially prevalent in capital cases and other serious felony cases. In many jurisdictions the peremptory strikes have been used at higher rates as a means to exclude racial minorities from jury service. Many communities across the country have failed to make juries more inclusive and representative of everyone who has the right to serve. In 2001, African Americans held the highest rates of incarceration; they constituted 900,000 of the total 2.2 million incarcerated. Data from the Bureau of Justice Statistics documented that one in six African American men had been incarcerated. As of 2010, African Americans were incarcerated at a rate of 5,525 per 100,000, Latinos 1,146 per 100,000 and 671 for whites and 43 for Asians. We believe this problem needs a solution because excluding racial minorities from juries only leads to collateral consequences. The credibility, reliability, and integrity of the criminal justice system is compromised when there is even an appearance of bias and discrimination. This will lead the legitimacy of the system to be called into question. Communities of color across the country have rejected and will continue to reject criminal verdicts handed down by juries that are unrepresentative of them. Research has suggested that compared to diverse juries, all-white juries tend to make more errors, consider fewer perspectives and spend less time deliberating. Having a racially diverse jury helps improve a jury’s ability to assess witness testimony, evaluate cross-racial identifications, avoid presumptions of guilt, and fairly judge a criminally accused. We believe there should be a greater homogeneity when it comes to the race of the individual on trial and the amount of people of the same race on the jury. We need to have an anti-discrimination enforcement that is dedicated to help prevent any racially biased jury selections. At the end of the day, everyone must have guaranteed equal protection of the laws under the Fourteenth Amendment and the exclusion of minorities from the pool of potential jurors violates this right. We write this letter because California is, and always has been, a leader when it comes to civil rights and hopefully after reading this petition you will also agree. Sincerely, Dr. Paul Lopez, Araceli Sanchez, Chelsea Givens, Isabel Hood, Janel Walter, Mandee Perez, and Monique Schofield

What has happened to Mary G. Sykes, can happen to you. American society--and our judicial -- is teaching our children what is theirs is theirs and what is yours is theirs. Protecting your golden years is not a spectator sport. My mother, at 90, filed a petition for a protective order to stop her eldest daughter, Carolyn Toerpe, from financial exploitation and willful deprivation of her liberty, property, human and civil rights, and Toerpe hired attorney Peter Schmiedel (law firm of Fischel and Kahn in Chicago) and along with two guardian ad litems, attorneys Cynthia Farenga and Adam Stern, railroaded Mother into a guardianship (in 2009). Schmiedel, Stern, Farenga, and Judges Jane Louise Stuart and Maureen Connors have not only successfully sanctioned the laundering all of mothers (over 1 million dollars) estate (sold her home, too) but also, stolen and converted all of my assets and estate, which included a medical account of at least $210,000, to be used to pay attorney Peter Schmiedel and the law firm he's associated -- and not, as Toerpe claims, for mother's care! Please WATCH: http://abcnews.go.com/WNT/video/mickey-rooney-testifies-elder-abuse-actor-control-finances-stripped-health-13042199 My mother now 95, is unnessarily drugged, prevented from access to the Courts and cannot appeal, and isolated from all family and friends for almost 5 years. Mother invited me to visit her on June 22, 2013 where she was illegally confined at the Senior Living facility in Naperville, Ill and the first thing my mother said when she saw and heard my voice, was "I knew you didn't abandon me. I knew you'd come save me". Toerpe arrived 40 minutes later, and while facility staff watched, she overtly physically abused Mother, and told her that she'd "NEVER see" me again. What has happened to my mother and me can happen to you: court sanctioned abuses of the elderly and disabled must stop! Attorneys like Schmiedel, Stern, Farenga and Judges Connors and Stuart are dangerous because they are empowered by our judicial and agencies like the Illinois Attorney Registration and Discipline Commission. (The attorney of my mother choice, Kenneth Ditkowsky, her friend, was sanctioned for trying to help her!) Carolyn Toerpe was estranged from the family and like a thief in the night, stole everything my Mother and Father worked their entire lives for including her freedoms and liberties -- and then, having retained the right attorneys, (Fischel and Kahn law firm) and with two supporting Guardian ad Litem, pauperized me too. The next step in the Cottage Industry's plan, is to over or under medicate or suffocated my Mother: cremate her, although not Mother's advance directive. Yes, this sounds unbelievable, but it's the biggest scam against the elderly and disabled -- an American Holocaust. Please help save my Mother and in doing so, will save the lives of millions of elderly and disabled people! Mary G. Sykes wrote letters to the Judge and anybody who would listen, but Judge Maureen Connors and Jane Louise Stuart turned a deaf ear: WATCH: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wcAU3Svl_SQ

On 11/20/09 William Levea intentionally and repeatedly rammed Christopher Spacks truck until he lost control and was hit by oncoming traffic on RT 370 in Cato, NY. Chris lost his life at the early age of 41. This was INTENTIONAL NOT AN ACCIDENT!!! This man should not be released from prison due to medical conditions. Do they release other MURDERERS for medical conditions? This man has a violent history and should not be released for any reason!!!
