Please Support The Pardon of Gafatasi Napoleon of Hawaii

The Issue

Gafatasi Napoleon is in prison for killing ( Alanaokala Solomon Covington ). Napoleon is convicted for killing him. But during trial there was allegations that Covington was assaulting and harassing women in the area. Napoleon at trial had to deal with the issue of being slutshamed for being a hero. Napoleon was under pressure to attack Covington or face the possibility of turning a blind eye on harassment. This state and country needs to start reforming good samaritan laws where people who do attack misogynists and rapists are not treated worse than the original victims they were trying to save. Napoleon did the right thing and responded to harassment in a situation where the courts may fail in cases like this.
