My son is facing an unfair sentence — a harsh reality that stems from a system where boys are often overlooked as victims. Prosecutors, like Melissa Hoy in Chesterfield County, tend to overcharge crimes simply to have room for negotiation, but in my son's case, this tactic has led to a miscarriage of justice.

Despite having irrefutable evidence supporting my son's claim of self-defense, including videos, text messages, and multiple witnesses, the prosecutor refuses to review it. A dreadful plea deal was entered without considering this further evidence that would undeniably exonerate him. We have all of this proof readily available to support our claim.

His family is desperately seeking your help. The legal system is supposed to seek the truth and administer justice, yet this seems to be ignored in my son's case. By supporting this petition, you can help persuade the authorities to reconsider his case fairly and reduce his sentence. Please, sign this petition to help us fight for justice and bring our son home.
