Our son, Evan Hawthorne, has been deeply wronged by the judicial system in South Carolina. His trial was marred by numerous oversights, resulting in an unjust conviction. As parents, we believe firmly in the principles of justice, fairness, and impartiality and ask for your support to secure these rights for Evan.

In Evan's case, there were severe lapses that compromised the validity of his trial. Critical evidence was either overlooked or mishandled, leading to a prejudiced outcome. Despite Evan's pleas of innocence, the judicial proceedings failed to uphold his fundamental civil rights. Every citizen, including Evan, deserves a fair trial—free of bias and conducted with the utmost integrity.

We are calling for a full, independent, and non-biased re-investigation into Evan's case by appointing an external review team. Additionally, Evan deserves a new trial where all evidence is fairly considered, legal procedures meticulously followed, and his rights as an American citizen upheld.

Our request stems from a pressing need for justice. The unfair plight Evan faces not only affects our family but also poses a threat to the integrity of our judicial system. Allowing such injustices to persist unchecked could set a dangerous precedent, undermining public trust in legal institutions and eroding civil liberties.

We implore the South Carolina judiciary and relevant authorities to reconsider Evan's case with the impartiality and fairness it deserves. Ensuring justice for Evan is not only a step towards correcting a grave wrong but is essential to maintain the principles upon which our society is built.

Please join us in our fight to grant Evan the justice he rightly deserves. Stand with us in calling for a re-investigation and a new trial. Sign this petition to help us restore faith in the judicial system and protect the rights of every citizen.
