This petition goal is to promote justice for the mentally ill and insure public confidence in our justice system.

This petition addresses issues of fair criminal sentencing practices for the mentally ill offender. It motions for an arrestee's mental health to be taken into consideration at the time of sentencing.

While there are laws aimed at this objective, not all crimanal defeants enjoy the protection of these laws.

Petitioner is only of thousands of mentally ill arrestee's that fall through the cracks of our court system.  But it doesn't mean that he is less entilted to fair justice.
