President Obama: Commute the sentence or pardon John Kiriakou
This petition had 2,695 supporters

Cathy Schneider started this petition to President of the United States President Barack Obama and
Kiriakou is an American hero. He refused to participate in torture, helped expose the program -- including the systematic use of torture, renditions and secret black sites -- and said on national television that torture was wrong. Instead of being rewarded for his courage and moral rectitude, he is currently the only person to be criminally prosecuted, and soon to be jailed, as a result of the Bush-era torture regime.
