I was Dusty’s cellmate for a few years and being around him and listening and talking to him for a few years changed my life! Since I was about 13 the longest I ever stayed out of incarceration was about 8 months and I’m now going on 5 years out of prison and drug and alcohol free! This man is a great person and deserves to have his freedom! Please let my friend out so he can enjoy the rest of his life! He’s worth it!
Lil Shine brightened my life with his art in the darkest times, I would love to see him free and prosper onward so he can continue to release beautiful music freely. Lil Shine knew what he did was wrong and he was very honest and transparent with his fans, the fact that he was able to do that shows that deep down he truly cares for his people and his fans care about him deeply as well, and thats more than a lot of these industry owned artists could say about their fans. I believe Lil Shine should be free #FREESHINE
When I was little I was sexually assaulted and abused by my then stepdad at the time. I had no one to protect me, my mom knew but did nothing about it. Reading their story about what they did and they did it to save their little sister, just made me incredibly sad. I wish I had older brothers who protected me like this when I was little. But I didn’t. Now I’m 26 in therapy trying to heal myself. They just saved so much pain and trauma for their little sister. These boys should not be locked up. They should be at home with their little sister. They are hero’s not criminals.
