Pieper Lewis is an Iowan teenager that was subjected to sex trafficking and rape. She killed one of her attackers. A court sentenced her to probation and to pay $150,000 in restitution to her rapist's family. She recently escaped from custody, but we maintain she should not have been incarcerated or punished for defending herself from future abuse in the first place. For seeking her freedom, she is currently in danger of being imprisoned for decades. We demand that the governor of Iowa or any relevant and capable authority immediately pardon her and do everything possible to provide treatment and restitution to Miss Lewis for the severe injustice that has been done to her. Ultimately, her record should be completely cleared, but we know that this is likely the province of the court system, which has already proven itself utterly incapable of rendering her justice, and has, in fact, done her irreparable harm beyond the crimes she has already suffered by requiring her to subsidize the family of one who victimized her. We call upon the governor of Iowa or any other capable authority to right this wrong and erase the shame that currently rests upon the state of Iowa and upon its citizens for allowing this travesty to continue to unfold.
