We, the signers of this petition, adamantly request justice for Sarah Pesa-Wale in the form of an indictment and subsequent trial of her husband, Eric Wale.

Sarah was murdered in her home in Watertown NY on August 28, 2015. By his own admission, her husband Eric Wale, was the only adult present at her time of death which has been ruled a homicide. If a "Grand Jury must determine that the evidence is legally sufficient and that it provides reasonable cause to believe that the defendant has committed the crime."*, we , the signers of this petition, believe that this admission in and of itself provides more than reasonable cause to believe that Eric Wale committed this crime.

A loving mother of three small children, a nurse in her community and an advocate against addiction, Sarah was a beautiful, kind and compassionate young woman who was horrendously and needlessly taken from her children and her loved ones. She touched the lives of all she came in contact with and her and her children rightfully deserve to see her killer held accountable for his heinous actions that resulted in her loss of life.

We respectfully request that justice is done and that a jury of his peers determine his guilt or innocence. Only then will we be satisfied that you have gone the distance to see that justice pervails for Sarah.

I miss my friend everyday. She was so much more than my stepdaughter, she was my friend. I pray everyday for justice for her and closure for those precious children that she adored as well as closure for our family, her family. For all the Torpey/Pesa clan, if God is with us then who can be against us? #justiceforSarah

My cousin was murdered in her sleep by her husband, so I understand the feelings of loss and helplessness, as well as the desire for justice. My family did not get justice for my cousin, Michelle. If this petition can help find justice for Sarah and some peace for her family , I am happy to help.

Always had My suspicions. I didn't want to say anything out of respect for the family. Now they are asking for justice and I fully believe he is guilty.

I babysat for her 2 older girls before their son was born. She loved her kids so much as well as her job caring for others. So sad. I attended the calling hours and Eric did not show any signs of being upset with her passing while I was there.

Balogna! You probably weren't a close friend or family member. He was in shock. Try not to be a bad person and get sucked into drama.
