About Freedom Granted

. . .

From personal experience, I know what it is like to have a loved one suffer behind bars. Whether they are guilty or not, incarceration is a crippling pain that affects more than just the person incarcerated. These affects can be felt mentally, emotionally, physically, and financially. Time is lost that one can't get back and countless memories are missed out on. The weight of incarceration is hard enough as it is, but when someone is wrongfully incarcerated and has had their life uprooted and freedom stripped away for something they did NOT do, its even harder. On top of the struggles that they and their family will now face, there is also a sense of hopelessness that they will never get justice, that their life and freedom mean nothing, and that the system that was meant to ‘ensure justice’ has failed them terribly.

I decided to take my passion one step further and create a platform for people to both share and receive knowledge with people from all over that are affected. I aim to provide informational blogs, support groups, and resources as we embark on this journey together. I encourage you to scroll, click, read, share and partake in this learning experience with me.

For those that wind up here and are not affected by the injustices of the criminal justice system, we are glad to have you just the same. Wrongful incarceration may not be something that affects you or your loved ones currently...but one day it might. Demand justice. Stand up for what is right. There is nothing in life more fulfilling than saving a life, especially from a system that is meant to destroy it.
