Help us to fight malicious prosecution against William Ackridge!


The State of Maryland vs William Ackridge:  The State of Maryland sentenced William Ackridge to five (5) years in prison with three (3) years suspended and two (2) years incarceration.  Plus, five (5) years probation with $200,000.00 restitution to be paid in 10 years.  The punishment doesn't fit the crime.  How can you be charged with theft for $500.00 and have to pay back $200,000.00?  They initially wanted to assign 1.3 million restitution but knew that was extreme for the conviction.  We already retained an appeals attorney that was waiting for the sentencing hearing.  The paperwork for the appeal was faxed over to the Queen Anne's County Circuit Court within an hour after the hearing.  They purposely detained Ackridge for 36 hours saying "we have not received the appeal yet".  


This is outrageous and "WE" must stand together!


Once you sign the petition, please ignore the next window that solicit for money.  That is "NOT" from us, its from this website to obtain money.  Thank you!

William Ackridge is a thief and a liar. He deserves to be put away in prison. He uses his slick talk and tries to act like he is helping you out when in all actuality he is ripping you off. He sold me a car, took my down payment then took back the car and gave me one that was a lemon and could not get registered. this petition should not be signed. If you actually read the court docket and description of his crime you would see that he is very shady as he once said to me "all my deals are a little shady". Send this man to jail to better the world.

200k for a 500 dollar charge?? That is insane. Something is not right here.

They just want to keep him locked up to cover their own mistakes. Let him go.

This whole thing is a joke. The court system in this county is completely broken and they are just targeting him for no reason.

I hope he gets out soon. The way they treated him at the court house is unforgivable.
