Tyrone Clark - Released after 48 years in prison!

We are fundraising for Tyrone Clark, who was just released from prison after serving 48 years for a rape he has always maintained he did not commit. The judge's decision to vacate the conviction, issued just days before Thanksgiving, is both joyous and enormously challenging for Tyrone, who -- after nearly half a century in prison -- has no home to return to and no basic necessities like food, toiletries and clothing. 

Mr. Clark has little family and no means.  Today he is living only off the generosity of others.  He (and I) heartily thank you for the donations already giving.  Beyond basic necessities, this money will go towards, e.g., allowing allowing him to move out of the rooming house where he currently lives. 

To read more about Tyrone's story, read here and here  and even on CNN .

Please consider making a donation to ease Tyrone's transition to freedom.

NB: Although the site requires that "Jeff Harris" be listed as the beneficiary, this money will go to Mr. Clark once he has a bank account.

 

Thanks,

Tyrone's Team
