The Issue

Cyntoia Brown was 16 when she was pimped out and sold to a 43 year old man, to be used for sex. She is currently serving a life sentence in Tennessee Prison for Women for the murder of Johnny Allen (the 43 year old whom she killed). However, there is evidence to support that she did this in self-defense and she was tried as an adult. Please help her get a re-trial so that the mistake of giving her a life sentence can be corrected.

Robert E Cooper Jr
Office of the Attorney General
