Update: Still Fighting for Justice – We Need Your Help More Than Ever

Hi everyone,

First, thank you so much to everyone who has signed, shared, and supported this petition so far. Your support truly means the world to our family during this difficult time.

As many of you know, we are fighting to bring Craig Breidenbach home—a husband, father, and man living with bipolar disorder, who never should’ve been treated like a criminal instead of a patient in crisis. He has now been incarcerated since July 2022, and every day apart from his children and family is another day of heartbreak and injustice.

Recently, Craig began a faith-based program called Freedom Challenge, which shows his dedication to change and growth. He has had no write-ups, no violence, and has been a model inmate. Yet, despite all this, we are still waiting and praying for mercy—for clemency, or for his time served to finally be recognized in full.

We’ve contacted government officials, filed public records requests, and shared our story on social media—but we can’t do it alone.

Please, if you believe in second chances, mental health awareness, and true justice—continue to share this petition. Tag officials. Post about Craig. Talk about it.

Our family is holding on to faith that the right people will hear our cry. And with your help, maybe that will finally happen.

With love,

Amanda Breidenbach & Family
