Some of you may be aware of my situation, others not so much. For those who are unaware of my misfortune I would like to enlighten you.
In 2009 at the young age of 20 (I’m currently 37), I was arrested and convicted for a murder I truly did not commit. And because of this I was given the sentence of LIFE WITHOUT PAROLE! The District Attorney’s only evidence was my fingerprint in a car that I recently occupied and a single witness who gave questionable testimony. The witness testified to have seen me fleeing the scene with a firearm, which he said to be blue and then later said it was silver. THERE WAS ZERO FORENSIC EVIDENCE, NO BLOOD OR GUNSHOT RESIDUE FOUND ON ME! NO VIDEO OR AUDIO PLACED ME AT THE SCENE! JUST THE TESTIMONY OF A DELIVERY GUY WHO SEES DIFFERENT KINDS OF PEOPLE ALL DAY!
The truth is I was nowhere close to the crime scene at that time. I was actually helping out a friend, but it has been extremely difficult for people to come forward on my behalf. People are fearful of also being wrongfully arrested accused convicted and/or retaliated against.
I have exhausted most of my remedies and I have been denied at every turn. I am currently filing for clemency from the state who has the power to do so. AS SUCH I AM ASKING THE COMMUNITY TO STAND WITH ME BY SIGNING MY PETITION IN SUPPORT OF THE STATE GRANTING ME CLEMENCY

Ricky has always been a good and respectful young man/man he was a boy when yall convicted him. personally to say he took a life to me is so insane, he gave so much smh his smile laugh walk talk such a good person all around. It’s been a minute man free him!
Ricky is innocent I went to every day of the trail and the evidence was weak so weak that the judge tolls him an Damon that he could let them go right now but he going to leave it up to the jury. Now mind you jury’s was falling asleep when the trail was going on I told Rickyand his Co-ed to tell there lawyers. Free an innocent man .
There are so many young men being convicted of crimes they didn’t commit or being held in jail falsely. He is a good person with a good heart i knew Ricky since we were 5 years old. His mother and father are amazing i pray this work out and he gets the justice he deserves.
My cousin has been gone long enough. He needs to be home with family
He Is Innocent Free Him
He has a good heart and is innocent
He Is Innocent

This is my little brother, and I know for a fact that he did not commit this crime. He does not deserve to still be in jail. It’s been way too long. He needs to come home.
