Why this petition matters

Started by John Gillespie

On August 4, 2022 Jackson Police Detective Anthony Fox was wrongfully convicted of the 2nd degree murder of Mr. George Robinson.  Anthony and two other officers were indicted for this crime.  The other two officers were found "not guilty" in a directed verdict by the judge. She found the state's case so lacking in evidence that she didn't allow that case to proceed. Sadly, Officer Fox was forced to trial, with a different judge. Despite overwhelming evidence of innocence he was found guilty.  This is plain and simply stated a gross miscarriage of justice.  

Although an appeal is planned, that process may take years.  In the interest of justice we move toward the most direct method to free Officer Fox.  This petition is directed to the Hon Tate Reeves, Governor of the State of Mississippi to use his constitutional power to pardon Officer Anthony Fox and relieve him from this ghastly burden and almost incomparable miscarriage of justice.
