EXHIBIT C
Graduate Degrees – Evidence of Academic Distinction and Rehabilitation
Petitioner: Justin-Ames Gamache
Docket No.: 1127-10-13 Bncr
Court: Vermont Superior Court
Description:
Photograph of two framed graduate diplomas awarded to Petitioner:
Master of Science in Psychology – University of Phoenix
Conferred on March 31, 2023
Graduated with Distinction
Master of Education – Concordia University
Date not fully visible, but confirmed by institutional frame and credentials
Includes ceremonial tassel, indicating formal recognition and completion
These degrees are presented in official frames bearing the seals and logos of their respective institutions and are clearly awarded to Justin Ames Gamache.
Purpose:
This exhibit is submitted to affirm the Petitioner’s longstanding commitment to education, ethical conduct, and civic development in the years following his 2013 misdemeanor. These graduate-level degrees signify high academic achievement and directly support the Petitioner’s eligibility for expungement under 13 V.S.A. § 7602(a)(1)(A), which requires lawful behavior and rehabilitation.
Furthermore, this exhibit counters any assertion of ongoing criminal risk, stigma, or recidivism by presenting clear evidence of post-conviction merit, discipline, and personal reform consistent with the purpose of expungement as clarified in In re A.M., 2015 VT 109
