This is just crazy. 28 years is way too long for a non violent crime when actual murderers are walking free. Free him now.

justice system is broken plain and simple. nobody deserves to sit that long just because they had a drug problem he served his time.

The copious amount of individuals that have to face this problem is beyond absurd. America is suppose to be a free and equal country and Sherman Coleman deserves justice which was not presented in his case. I do not see how it is fair for a murderer to receive a lesser sentence than someone who committed non-violent crimes. This makes me feel completely unsafe to know that I could possibly be walking the streets with former murderers!

I strongly agree with this petition and what it stands for because I personally feel that it is wrong and unjust that a man/woman could commit a violent crime and/or murder someone and receive a less harsh prison sentence than a man/woman who committed a crime without any physical violence. Not only is it unjust, but it is also a potential threat and safety hazard if that violent individual has not recovered or rehabilitated during their incarceration. I feel that an individual who would commit a non-violent crime could rehabilitate sooner than an individual of violent nature. Why are there opportunities for physically violent individuals to have freedom before a non-violent rehabilitated individual? Why can't violent crimes have as harsh sentencing as non-violent crimes? Why aren't violent crime sentences more strict than non-violent crimes? I feel that this petition is a prime example of my frustration and should not simply be shrugged off.
