Neli's plight has touched the hearts of over 1,800 of you. Reading the comments you each took the time to add moved me to tears. I am going to find a way to share these comments widely because they were touching, insightful and made it clear that this is personal for all of us. Please make Neli matter as other events threaten to overshadow his plight and time runs out for us to make an impact on the request for a pardon. Please share this petition as much as you can. Use the hashtag #FreeNeli on twitter and explain to friends and family that but for the grace of God, any autistic young person might end up in Neli's situation. His pardon request is before the Governor as we speak. Let's do what we can to make our voices heard. In humble gratitude Kerima
