    About time, free my uncle.

  2. Thank You all for your support around my brother. I never knew the lengths people would go in order to gain a wrongful conviction. I never truly knew about wrongful convictions until the happened to my brother. But when the same group of people cover up a murder in order to maintain the wrongful conviction is disheartening and cruel. My nephew was only 16 years old and he was coming forward with the truth behind the coercion of his sisters. The truth always comes out and justice will prevail. God Bless everyone who is in the world righting the wrongs.

    I grew up with PAUL as he is my brother ,he has always been the kindest most loving brother he would do anything for anyone, anytime ..He has unjustly !!!!!! been convicted for a crime HE NEVER COMMITTED .COMING from a big family we were always stereotyped so when this all come about by a sick vengeful woman we knew it wasn’t gonna end well but we had faith in the justice system BOY were we wrong!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! the last name will put you away every time.Paul has lost a great part of his life to this unjustice as long with losing his MOM and siblings in which he did not attend to say goodbye as he didn.t want to embarise his family by standing there in shackles ,but that’s paul my younger brother I went to see him a few times and had a hard time sleeping after that. PAUL is a VETERAN,EMT and has worked his whole life. NOW with this unjust conviction he is cheated out of his rightful social security.I find it SAD that political people need to feel important and make headlines by convicteing an innocent man.I pray he will get out soon but the town we live in will always look at him wrong and will never believe he was wrongfully convicted .IT’s really sad that people in offices can’t say oops I made a mistake I convicted an innocent man.I believe this put my MOTHER in an early grave.If PAUL Admitted He Did something he would only have gotten a few years but he holds to his belief and still admits he did nothing so hes serving the whole sentince he was handed .A guilty man would have taken the FEW years.NOT MY BROTHER HE’s innocent and I can’t wait for him to get out.ONE of the saddest things is our family does not have the kind of money to have hired a lawyer in the beginning because I know for a fact he would NEVER EVER have been convicted I LOVE YOU PAUL CAN’T WAIT FOR YOU TO GET OUT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
