Earilier this year 5 african american young males were convicted of simple murder of a homeless man in Meridian MS, without evidence and only statements that were not all the same. The Five Males Names Were: 17 year old Eric Mosley jr, 20 year old Marcus Anderson, 19 Year Old Antonio Chapman, 17 Year Old Anshawn Davis and 20 Year Old DeAnthony Davis. They were sentenced to life with parole. I am starting this petition in hope that their sentences will be reduced so that they may have a second chance to live a life. They are young and made a foolish and thoughtless mistake and I know that they would take back there actions if they could go back and do so. But they can pay their debt to society, but to where if they are behind bars serving time that they will never be able to get back so i am asking: Dont you think they deserve just one second chance?

Yes I think they deserve a second chance because they were young and everyone deserves a second chance in God on words.

These boys are way to young for life in prison. Meridian needs to do better. My prayers are with the familys during this hard time.
