This petition is meant for the 6th Judicial Court regarding Jacob Michael Young. This petition is to bring knowledge to the court regarding the good moral character of Jacob Young. This petition has been signed by community members and students of the Brandon school District. It is important that the court be made aware of the support from students and members within the community regarding this issue. Those that signed this petition support the notion that Jacob Young did not make the threats with the intent to harm or endanger any community member. Crimes such as those would be punishable by the law. Jacob Young does not fit this criminal profile and therefore this petition is to support the idea that Jacob Young should not be considered a felon for the rest of his life nor imprisoned for the charges that have been brought against Jacob Young. The petitioners are requesting for leniency when charging and sentencing Jacob Young.

I know my brother. He's responsible, caring, loving, and can make a stranger laugh. I know if he does something his intentions are pure. I don't think my brother who has his whole life ahead should be made an example of. He is a good student, brother, friend, and Uncle.

Knowing Jacob for a few years now I know he had no intention at all to carry out what he said I believe it was just a mistake on his part he wanted to make an impact but went about it the wrong way. We also have to take into consideration that he's young and although he is a very bright individual he wasn't thinking about the consequences that would come from these threats. I feel that it would be truely unfair if Jake had to go through life with this situation always arising and labeling him as someone he's not.

Jake used to be one of my good friends.. he would never truly do anything to harm others. Please, dont let Jake be known as a felon.. His actions were extreme, but were for good cause.

When I found out that it was him I knew right then that he was not violent. I've heard him talk enough to understand that he is not violent at all.

After knowing Jacob Since 8th grade and now being a senior in high school there have been many things that I have come to learn about him. I know Jake is a caring, loving, and very passionate person. Jake is not a criminal and doesn't deserve to live his life as a felon. He has so much potential it’s unreal, this would literally destroy his life; all for him trying to bring attention to this app because people were getting bullied, --a statement gone horribly wrong-- I know that there could have been other ways but I also know Jakes intentions were good and I have no doubt about that whatsoever. I really hope the courts take what I have done into consideration, many people know Jake is not a dangerous person and are supporting me with my petition and supporting him 100% and many people have told me that they are happy that I am doing this. I would also like to say that the staff was “advised not to sign” (A teacher told me this) which I thought was unfair and unjustifiable. Although they were advised not to sign there was one staff member who signed anyways who I am very thankful for. He has helped me a lot; when I first made the petition he looked over it and helped me make appropriate changes, and also told me he was happy I made the petition. I think it’s important that the courts see how much support Jake has, because what they see is not the real Jake, we as a community know the real Jake.
