Back in April 2009 I blogged about two sisters serving life sentences in Mississippi for a crime they did not commit. Thousands of us concerned bloggers and citizens wrote letters to Governor Haley Barbour of Mississippi, signed petitions, alerted the media, and shared this atrocious wrongful conviction case in hopes that justice would be served.
God is good, the Scott Sisters will be released and hopefully pardoned any day now!
Many people believe that the governor suspended their sentences for political reasons. I don’t know or even care why he did it, I am just happy that they will finally be released from prison after so many years of suffering and waiting for justice! I send my Love, prayers, and continued support to Jamie and Gladys Scott.
..the justice system handed the sisters a sentence they were on trial for robbery and were found GUILT it dont matter the amount someone was robbed.That person has more than likely gone through there life always looking over there shoulder and worried about getting robbed again.They should serve there time.Once again the people have to give in to the NAACP again .If they dont get there way they label you a racist but i am sure they were black members in the jury that convicted them …
This goes beyond the amount of money involved in the alleged robbery…your comment shows that you clearly don't get it. They were found guilty for a crime they DID NOT commit its not about people not getting there way. This is about JUSTICE!
