32 years ago a 17 year old black kid from Louisiana was sentenced to death for a crime he did not commit. The sentence was commuted to life in prison and there he waits. He will be 50 soon and is still waiting for justice. The trial was a sham. Amnesty International has declared him a political prisoner. Gary Tyler deserves a full pardon and a chance to live his life. So much was taken from him, give him back the rest of his life.

It will only take a few minutes of your time. Read Bob Herbert's columns about the case and do the right thing. Thank you!
I plan to keep posting and kicking until the petition has enough names to send it to Governor Blanco.
