Why this petition matters

Started by Rebecca Bates

My 19 year old son admitted to a crime that cost him a ten year mandatory sentence in prison. He was forced to commit the crime (his life was threatened) & forced to answer & sign statement (written by narcotics investigator Timothy Rigby). The entire situation from the police entering our residence and arresting my then 17 yr old son until the sentencing was completely a diaaster due to wrongful treatment, illegal search and arrest procedure, etc. Gareth was treated unfairly, the investigator (Officer Timothy Rigby) and Forest Police Department investigated my then underage son without my consent, presence , or permission Rigby also wrongfully questioned my son and wrote my son's statement due to ongoing learning disabilities and by scaring and threatening my son. There are all many unlawful and illegal procedures that were made when my son was questioned and arrested. Please hear my story and help free my son! #FreeGareth #Inmat
