I realize it is appropriate to let the judicial process work. I just wanted to send you this link to an online petition for Christopher’s Bill. Christopher Pittman is the child who at the age of 12 years old, and under the influence of both Paxil and Zoloft, took the lives of his grandparents. Christopher has been sentenced to 30 years in an adult prison, and will be sent there this coming April on his 17th birthday. This Bill will help not only Chris but all children caught up in a juvenile justice system that does not support children.

We desperately need you to sign it. We need you to support it. Please send it to others in your email list.

Mandatory sentencing does not take into consideration the past non-violent social history or the effects strong prescription drugs have on young minds. The results are ruined young lives. We need your support. Please sign this petition and lend your name to the pursuit of Juvenile Justice. Help us give a voice to the children that have none.
