The Aaron Swartz "Protect Americans From Unjust Prosecutions" Act
In memory of Aaron Swartz, please create a bill or legal pathway to help prevent future unjust prosecutions of Americans where the crime clearly doesn't warrant the punishment.
Why is this important?
I honor Aaron Swartz and appreciate his work, amongst many works, to defeat the now defunct SOPA Bill (Stop Online Piracy Act) and protect our freedom of information. His creative flame and passion for America's growth has blown out. For, Aaron took his own life, it appears, in part due to a wildly unjust prosecution which included 13 felonies and 50 years of possible jail time for a crime (or not a crime!) that the offended parties didn't even fully support the prosecution of. All at a time, when banksters have ripped America off, of billions of dollars with very few prosecutions of these offenders.
