Help Amy come home .. She has already served her time


Help Amy come home .. She has already served her time
The Issue
Nothing has changed Amy is still incarcerated for almost three additional years now. Time she can never get back to spend with her girls and family. Justice with no mercy. I have written numerous letters to the Governor not sure he even sees them. I have reached out to numerous legal sources to no avail. It's in God's hands. Let's all pray that he acts on it soon. To all of you have signed "thank you".
How much is enough?
Amy Locane and her children need your support to help obtain justice in what is at the very least, an unfair situation, and at most, a gross injustice in our legal system. Amy has been reincarcerated for the same crime a second time five years after having completed her sentence in a state prison.
She did everything the law required, including serving three years in prison and two on parole. In Amy's case this was enough to turn Amy's life around: she has been sober for 13 years, embracing a new faith and contributing to the greater good through service. Nonetheless, Amy was sent back to prison to serve five more years because 8 years ago, the sentencing judge made a mistake. Amy is paying for that judge's mistake; he apparently did not give the correct sentence initially. Amy did everything the law asked of her and is now caught in the crossfire of different sentences from different judges. In order to fight this unfair and capricious act; Amy needs an federal attorney, which is quite expensive.
Amy's reincarceration is not justice.
Please share this story with your friends and pray for Amy and her girls. This experience will require inordinate faith, strength, and comfort to endure. She is deeply grateful!
Thank you and God bless
