Johnia Hope Berry, 21, was brutally attacked and murdered in her home at Brendon Park Apartments in Knoxville, TN, on December 6, 2004. The murderer has never been located or arrested. TN House Bill 2649 and Senate Bill 2651 would greatly aid law enforcement in the capture of violent criminals. The proposed bills would require DNA testing of anyone arrested for a violent felony. Data would then be entered into the state registry, and later removed if the arrestee is found not guilty. Other states have adopted similar legislation, but Tennessee has not. Please help us locate Johnia
We are approaching 500 signatures and need to hit this goal immediately to command the attention of our state legislators. Take a moment right now to text this link to three friends who live in Tennessee. Post the link to Facebook and tag your local representative to demand they support HB 2649 and SB 2651.

Its about time Tennessee stepped up. Think of the families who never got their day in court because the system failed them. Do it for Johnia.

Why isnt this law already on the books? Such a no brainer. Hope this passes soon so other families dont have to wait 10 years for answers.
