The news finally broke and Dionis is coming home. My heart is full knowing our calls for justice were heard by those in power. We still have a long road of healing ahead but today we celebrate the truth prevailing.

INNOCENT YOUNG MAN FACES UP TO 25 YEARS IN PRISON FOR A CRIME HE DID NOT COMMIT
Final supporters
Growing up in America as kids we are taught that we are all innocent until proven guilty. Unfortunately for Dionis Mejia that isn't the case, Dionis is a 23 year old aspiring rapper who also goes by the name of "Hefe" from Spanish Harlem. Dionis, like many young men from his community didn't have it easy growing up where violence and drugs are a normality, but young Dionis stood head strong and kept himself on a straight path. Instead of falling into the wrong crowd Dionis dedicated his time on his passion.. Music. On January 15th, 2016 Dionis was found guilty of a heinous crime he DID NOT commit and could be facing up to 25 years in prison. Despite all his effort, Dionis was let down by our system the very same SYSTEM that is supposed to protect us. There is an innocent man sitting in a cell while the true corporate roams free. Dionis has such a huge positive influence on his community, his music is relatable. He creates REAL RAW ART!! Dionis is a dreamer.. A believer.. He deserves so much better than what our justice system has provided him with. He is not just a statistic, please let us take a STAND in his time of need and demand JUSTICE

Watching the count rise for Dionis gives me hope but we must hit that hundred mark before the weekend. Send the link to your inner circle right now because he is still waiting for justice in that cell.

Dionis only focus and passion was music. Too many of our young men are being robbed from opportunities to be great and make our communities better. Our system needs to start protecting what is the majority and stop treating us like the minority.
When a person is innocent of a crime they did not commit, the system should do a better job of investigating. This theme plays out too often with innocent people in jail who lose years of their lives to be exonerated down the line. Let's not have this happen.
May God b w u & urs in this time , my father was murdered in prison facing time for a crime he ddnt commit n after his death is when they realized their mistake ! I Dnt wish this on ANYONE ! Prayers go out to u , stay strong keep the faith !
I am a United states Navy sailor and I don't know the full story behind his case, but word on the streets is that be didn't do it and refuses to tell on the person who did. Please do not convit a innocent man with a bright future.
I grew up in the neighborhood he's from .. Fortunately I moved and changed my life , I seen this kid grow up and know his family very well. Just as easy as someone pulling a trigger a judge banging a gavel and taking this young mans life is just as criminal .
He was a good kid he did not do anything let him get out he already wasted half a decade in a cell for something he did not do
Free the real fix the system!
