• Governor Brown: Exonorate wrongfully convicted Keith Doolin
    Keith Doolin was 21 years old when he was wrongfully convicted and imprisoned in 1996. It has now been disclosed in the Habeas Corpus that his attorney was negligent and did not provide necessary information to his trial experts or to the jury and failed to interview witnesses. On 10-3-2011 Keith Doolin was proven innocent by D.N.A. testing but has not yet been released. Our justice system is in bad need of repair and Keith Doolin, an innocent man, MUST be exonorated after sitting behind bars for 18 years.

  • The Death Penalty in Florida
    I, along with friends from Amnesty International, Valencia college, UCF, PeaceBuilders with Justice of Florida, and professionals like Joe Durocher, have worked against the death penalty for many years want to change the unjust Death Penalty in Florida. Poverty and race are more influential in the verdict than guilt. The Florida system is deeply flawed as shown by its high rate of exoneration: 24 men were released from Death Row when found innocent. Who knows how many of the 74 who were executed were also innocent?

  • Do Not Legalize Recreational Marijuana
    As a Pediatrician working mostly with youth taken into State custody, I find that a large fraction of the children are from substance abusing families, and that a large fraction of the teens evaluated are abusing tobacco, alcohol, marijuana and other harmful substances. I firmly believe that youths become dependant on, or addicted to chemicals more quickly than adults, and that the history of an individual's chemical dependency is generally a progression from tobacco to alcohol to marijuana--then sometimes tragically to harder drugs.
