(All proceeds go directly to campaign for Angelo Vasquez)
Every day innocent people & children are incarcerated for crimes that they did not commit at the hands of our broken legal system. This campaign is for Angelo Jacob Vasquez a now 29 year old Artist, alchemist and healer. Angelo has been incarcerated since he was 16 years old for crime that he did not commit. He was unfortunately present and Witness to a horrific non gang related homicide. He was not the shooter and was simply present with no idea the kid he was with would ever be capable of such a horrific act, When he fled the scene fearing for his life he quickly went into the authorities to give his testimony, the shooter turned himself in and confessed soon after to the crimes and the authorities decided Angelo was just as guilty for being present under the barbaric NPC Natural And Probable Consequence Theory which states that if you are present when someone commits a murder then you share the same intentions. (This theory heavily affects women, children and people of color)
Now cut to 13 years later, after spending time in a literal hell on earth for crime they did not commit Former governor Jerry Brown passed into existence a Senate Bill 1437 Which makes the NPC theory illegal and will allow people who have been sentenced under it a chance at resentencing. Imagine spending 13 years knowing that you were completely innocent and spending those 13 years thinking that you are going to spend every waking moment inside this penitentiary. There truly was no hope for Angelo & his familia for a very long time and we thank spirit and the universe for bringing upon us such a beautiful blessing through this Senate Bill 1437.
Angelos family & partner have found themselves under an extreme deadline to be able to come up with the funding to get the next appeal we need through our new lawyer. This is an appeal at a higher court level and time is absolutely of the essence as we have until 18 June. We have tried doing this through personal loans and have had no luck being able to acquire them unfortunately.
This Entire experience has been completely brutal for all parties involved and the sheer artistic and magical talent that Angelo inhabits is unparalleled and we truly believe in their ability to conquer the outside world and create an abundant new reality for themselves.
Angelos family & partner have fought tooth and nail to be able to come up with the funding for this next stage of this legal journey but have found ourselves at a stalemate and are humbly asking the community for help to bring this powerful wizard home to us.
