Help Raise money for a lawyer for Justin
Donation protected
I am in a mother's worst nightmare. I have a 15 year old son, Justin that some of you already know is a kind hearted respectful young man. Wouldn't hurt a fly. 45 days ago J.J. was arrested accused of a crime he did not commit. Yesterday, the judge gave J.J a guilty verdict when he had all the evidence proving his innocence that JJs Public Defender that was given to us chose not show the proof in the court of law. Now, as a mother I'm going to do whatever it takes in my power to get an appeal and hire a lawyer and I need your help. As a mother, the only thing I want to do is protect and raise my kids with all of my love, care and support. I know my son is the "Gentle Giant" as one of his teachers described him as. My son has held on to his innocence since the day of his arrest. He was very shocked and confused on what was going on. He did not understand the alleged charges.
The past 45 days, Justin has been having lots of faith and staying strong while in jail. His public defender that did nothing to show his innocence in court has attempted numerous of times to convince my son to sign a plea agreement and every time he has said the same response and explained to them that he cannot sign something saying he is guilty when he is not guilty.
My Gentle Giant has learned to stay strong and have faith in the truth coming out by praying to God every day. He has been reading the bible and has been annotating and sharing his favorite verses that he has read so far to his siblings. He has hope in God and wants so bad to come home where he belongs.
Please help me hire a lawyer that will fight for my sons innocence in this appeal. Anything will help and is greatly appreciated in this time of need. God bless everyone and please help us pray for my son, Justin.
