A young man is currently fighting for his life in the Intensive Care Unit after enduring a brutal attack. He was violently stomped on while he lay unconscious, defenseless against his assailant. Despite the severity of the assault, the charges against Cooper Riley Camferdam have been limited to Battery 1st degree. However, given the life-threatening injuries suffered, these charges do not reflect the gravity of his actions or the intent behind them.

Attempted murder charges typically require an act deliberately intended to kill. When an individual performs an act such as stomping on someone's head while they are unconscious, it must be viewed through the lens of intent to cause severe harm or death. The current charge does a disservice to the victim, his family, and the community concerned about escalating violence and inadequate justice.

In cases with similar circumstances, legal precedents have shown that elevating charges to attempted murder is a necessary step to ensure justice. By failing to upgrade these charges, we set a dangerous precedent that could embolden potential offenders, believing the consequences of their violent acts to be minimal.

We urge the district attorney to review the case of Cooper Riley Camferdam urgently. Examine the evidence, consider the impact of not holding individuals fully accountable for their actions, and upgrade the charges to attempted murder. This decision not only aligns with justice but supports the victim's family in their pursuit of closure and protection of others in similar situations.

Stand with us in demanding justice. Let's ensure that such severe actions are met with the seriousness they deserve, and that victims see their attackers face consequences proportionate to their crimes. Together, we can affect change and strengthen our justice system to properly reflect the community's outrage and the grievous nature of this crime.

Please sign this petition to call for the charges against Cooper Riley Camferdam to be upgraded to attempted murder. Your support can help bring justice where it is needed and prevent future acts of violence from being minimized. Together, we can make a difference.
