It’s a Christmas miracle!!! This morning, Gov. Cuomo granted my client CLEMENCY!!! Since childhood, she’s suffered unspeakable abuse, domestic violence, and spent 17 yrs incarcerated facing life in prison. We’ve waited for this decision for 2 yrs. Finally, she will be free. Merry Christmas!!!

Governor Cuomo granted clemency to 21 individuals who have demonstrated substantial evidence of remorse, rehabilitation and a commitment to the community.

I have mixed feelings of elation and sadness. This should not be happening in our criminal justice system— 25 years of a person’s life that can never be redeemed!!! We need to do better.

This is exactly the reason that I fight hard against injustice!
