Pamela Smart, who was not present during the murder of her husband, Gregg, and has maintained her innocence for twenty five (25) years, has a sentence of despair and one without hope--Life without the possibility of parole. 

 

As it stands now, she will never go before a parole board.  The teenagers who killed her husband, and admitted it, took plea bargains in exchange for falsely naming Pame as the "mastermind."  Otherwise, they would be serving her sentence.  Instead, they have all now been released and are enjoying freedom, while she continues to serve this prolonged death sentence.

 

Something is wrong with this picture. Pamela's is not a wasted llife.  She has earned two master's degrees with high honors while incarcerated and makes a difference in the lives of so many women she tutors, counsels and teaches on a daily basis.  She will not allow them to give up - nor will she. 

 

Despite being brutally attacked in prison, an unprovoked assault which required plastic surgery and the insertion of a plastic plate in her face and additional surgery on her knee which causes daily pain, she continues to help others.  As she has many times in the past, she recently saved another inmate from committing suicide.  Her only path to freedom is with the help of the Governor of New Hampshire who has the power to reduce or commute her sentence. 

 

One wrongfully accused and unjustly convicted person is too many, especially if it's someone you love.  Please consider signing the petition below to free yet one more innocent person.  Thank you.
