People get indefinite sentences or cruel and unusual sentences everyday and cannot raise enough noise from prison. Cruel and unusual punishments are against your eight amendment rights. Please sign your name below and fight the corrupt system with me.

Reason

Being peoples voice when their voices are not heard is important. Even with appealing a case, the appeals are usually denied due to the justice system backing the justice system.

Thank you for your support, Mina Howell from , Columbus

Why people sign

No one deserves to be unjustly imprisoned.
- People of color get higher sentences than white people for the same and lesser crimes.
- People are getting imprisoned for things they didn't do and/or aren't actual crimes.

It's unreasonable and unjust.

Too long has the justice system been loking us up unjustly. Not to mention, so many laws of change or has been modified and yet, my brothers and sisters are still locked up for law that has been changed years ago. It’s time to put an end to this.

The justice system is corrupted, people who SHOULD be sentenced aren't, some are sentenced for a longer period for something minor especially for a first offense. Not everyone is given the same opportunity as others because of the color of their skin. The justice system has became a profit for themselves, the justice system isn't here to help people correct their lives, they're only here to make another dollar off them by overcrowding prisons, and not providing the proper tools for inmates to better their mental health or actions.
