Why this petition matters

Started by Charity Blount

We are asking for a thorough Review in Andrew Blount's case due to extenuating circumstances.

Andrew Blount inmate #255961, was WRONGFULLY CONVICTED and found guilty of ROBBERY/MURDER by an all-white jury in Grand Rapids, Michigan 26 years ago in 1996. He was sentenced to Life Without Parole. He has always maintained his innocence in the crime and sought Justice on behalf of both himself and the victim.

No DNA, gunshot residues, fingerprints, or footprint analysis places Andrew Blount at the scene of the crime. No eyewitnesses actually say they saw him rob or shoot anyone. Witness statements from those seeking a REWARD or leniency for parole violations led to the arrest and conviction. However, the weapon presented at trial belonged to one of the prosecution's star witnesses who told jurors that the weapon was never in Mr. Blount's possession because he'd given it to his cousin, who was also a witness for the State seeking amnesty on unrelated Felony charges.

Not one of Mr. Blount's alibi witnesses were thoroughly investigated. He believes this lack of investigation is because the victim in the case was also white. The lack of funds and genuine support has prevented him from surmounting the truth in this case.

Recently, we found new information in regards to one of the lead detectives in Andrew's case, Detective Mark Armstrong. Mr. Armstrong was fired from the Wyoming Police Department in 2011 for his racially charged slurs towards African Americans. Here is an article MLive wrote on Detective Armstrong, after he was arrested by the Holland, Michigan Police Department. ALL of Mark Armstrong's cases should be revisited & reviewed.  www.mlive.com/news/grand-rapids

PLEASE HELP Andrew Blount Fight for his Freedom! Go online and F.O.I.A. docket no. #96-11359-FC (Court of Appeals No. 203872) to see the case for yourself! HELP Andrew get JUSTICE. See what an unjust and broken system can do when you don't have the funds or knowledge to fight for yourself. WRONGFULLY CONVICTED for 26 YEARS without justice! 26 YEARS of incarceration! 26 YEARS of being ignored by the courts! 26 YEARS of precious life wasted away for a crime HE DIDN'T DO! There is his story and there is history. We know that his story can't and won't be known unless they are willing to look at the history of corruption in the system. To do this we must all find the strength to support the WRONGFULLY CONVICTED and help fight to free ANDREW BLOUNT. We welcome ANY and ALL HELP in pursuing Justice.

LET'S GET ANDREW BLOUNT BACK INTO THE COURTS & LET THE EVIDENCE SPEAK!
