• Superintendent Stewart: Stop Expulsion Proceedings Against Kiera Wilmot. Allow Her to Return to B...
    On April 22, 16-year-old Kiera Wilmot was arrested at her Polk County high school for conducting a science experiment. Polk County Superintendent John Stewart has made the decision to place Kiera in an “alternative school” as he considers expulsion proceedings. The teen, who has no criminal history and maintained good grades, has suddenly found herself trapped in Florida’s insidious school to prison pipeline; which has continually funneled mostly youth of color out of Florida’s schools.

  • Don't shorten- Enron chief executive Jeffrey Skilling's-prison sentence.
    Public Justice-We are taught from childhood that "right is right and wrong is wrong" and that there are consequences as a result of our actions. It is in the public's interest that criminals-whether blue collar or white collar are treated equally under the law, and are not given special consideration/treatment based on their financial means or financial misdeeds.

  • Semi trucks take lives
    My 16 year old nephew was killed in a car accident on April 18, 2013 on I94. He was heading west bound on I94. He merged into the left lane and hit a patch of ice causing his vehicle to go into the median. His car slid through the median into oncoming traffic heading east bound on I94 and was struck by a semi that was in the passing lane. That lane should only be used for passing and semi-trucks are always in the passing lane. It should be a law semi-trucks cannot be in the passing lane unless only to pass and only during normal conditions. Within that same week there were 3 accident’s all involving semi-trucks and all were in the passing lane. Out of the 4 people involved two died!

  • URGENT! Stop Mississippi From Executing a Man Who Is Probably Innocent
    Willie Manning has been in death row in Mississippi for almost 20 years, and the only evidence against him was testimony from another inmate, who claims he confessed to the murder of Tiffany Miller and John Steckler. This inmate was already known for unreliable testimony against 2 other people, and has since recanted his testimony. Manning is scheduled to be executed on Tuesday, and the Mississippi supreme court has just found that a DNA test which could prove his innocence is not necessary.
