“Our family is heartbroken. No one believes Michael deserves 25 years in prison but no one will step up and fix it. Where is the justice in our justice system?” "Florida’s First District Court of Appeal denied Michael's appeal of a 2011 conviction for aggravated battery. Giles was seeking a new trial based on a claim of ineffective assistance of counsel. The First DCA rejected the claim in a 2-1 opinion issued on Monday, November 20th." – FAMM We have not lost hope and neither has he, due to the support of a great organization, great people (like you) & lawyers who have worked tirelessly to fight for this cause. We will continue our fight! Please continue to share Michael's petition and ask others to add their voice to the call to bring him home. It is more important now than ever that we continue to share his story.
