Help Free Jamie and Gladys Scott

I invite all villagers to take a few seconds to sign this petition on behalf of these two innocent sisters, Gladys and Jamie Scott.

On December 24, 1993, Scott County Sheriff's Department arrested two sisters, Jamie and Gladys Scott for armed robbery. Jamie and Gladys Scott were each sentenced to double life terms in prison in October 1994.

• Neither sister had prior convictions
  
• Neither sister had prior arrests
  
• Neither sister had a criminal history
  
• Allegedly $11 was stolen
  
• No one was injured
  
• No one was murdered

Here is the kicker -- three young Black men confessed to the robbery. These three hoodlums linked Jamie and Gladys to the crime. These three miscreants received a light sentence of 10 months in exchange for their plea bargain.





I appreciate the time you will take to look into this. It doesn't matter whether you think that they are innocent or guilty ... the injustice is that the crime does not warrant the amount of prison time given to these two young Black women. At some point we MUST stand up for justice. This happens far too often and we have the POWER to do something about it.
