John Ramey #N-81025 of Pontiac Correctional Center, 700 west Lincoln Street, PO Box 99, Pontiac,Illinois,61764,has filed a petition for \"Executive Clemency\" with the Honorable Rod R. Blagovich,Govenor of the State of Illinois,USA. John Ramey received a \"Natural-Life-Sentence\" for murder by \"accountability\". John Ramey is innocent and he never caused harm to anybody,nor hurt or killed a human being or take part in any crime He has no past convictions and has already served 21 years for a crime he didn\'t commit,which is unjustly and unfair! If you believe John Ramey\'s petition for Executive Clemency #26040 should be granted,please sign this petition. Thank You!!!

The increase in support has moved the petition into a position to request a formal review from the Governor's office. I am currently finalizing the legal documentation for this submission to ensure the request for clemency is processed immediately.

This whole accountability law is such a mess. Praying John gets his freedom back he has suffered enough.
