We need Jack Stollsteimer, to keep his promise to reform the justice system in Delaware County PA by re-sentencing juvenile lifers on an individualized basis.

Jermaine Shockley, has spent 13 years of his life sentence incarcerated for a crime he committed when he was 17 years old. The life sentence is the result of conflicting eyewitness testimonies for a shooting that may well have been third degree rather than first degree murder according to the PA Innocence Project. It also seems apparent that one of the two key witnesses fabricated his testimony as a means for a reduced sentence. This testimony contradicted the other eyewitness testimony and it was given two years after the incident, while the witness himself was incarcerated.

What should have been a third degree murder case was turned into a first degree conviction through police coercion of the second witness. 

I am a co-founder of Chester Freedom Advocates and I know Jermaine personally. I spent ten months in prison with him and saw his amazing leadership skills at work. In my opinion, what makes him a great leader is his defense for those who are vulnerable. Jermaine deserves a second chance; I say that with certainty and credibility.

Jermaine has created a second chance integration plan called the Inside Out Program and needs your signature to persuade Mr. Stollsteimer to give it careful consideration.

There is NO need to donate. CHANGE.org is a little bit confusing, if you donate all it does is give him extra exposure on their site.
