Decertification - Simply put is the transfer of a minor from adult court to juvenile court. The judge must assess if that transfer will serve the public interest. Please sign this petition in support of Cordell’s decertification and helping the judge make that decision. This vital decision will be the difference between helping to provide a chance for justice with rehabilitation and not paying the price of life in prison.

Think of your own adolescent experiences and imagine the mistakes made at 16. 16 year olds are so often confused, moody, defiant, and reckless with limited coping skills. The underdeveloped immature mind of a 16 year old can’t possibly comprehend the totality of most actions and their impact on their life and the lives of others. Let’s not let the behavior of a 16 year child be held to the same mental and emotional level of maturity as a man.

Thank you for your support!

Everyone deserves a second chance at life. This young teenager was simply defending his mother’s honor. I believe that is commendable.

No one with age of the kind deserves to serve in those conditions no matter the case or punishment

Signed. It's not easy to my signature to such. However I understand. I too was trouble as a youth and made questionable decisions as an adult. I am a man completely separate from the ignorance/immaturity and lack of understanding that once influence/guided me. Remember this signature is all I ask because if my signature helps to bring mercy/ a chance at redemption, I would ask that you make time to Communicate with me in depth at least twice. That decision will be yours to make. It would mean a great deal to me and possibly to you as well. I pray you Gods powerful gift of Mercy. You can connect with me via Facebook.

Let's take a look at all the circumstances before judging. He's a minor and as written are minors capable of having the same mindset as adults?
