The case of Gary Tyler stands as a devastating example of a life stolen by a series of improper, racially-motivated decisions and actions by attorneys, courts, governors, judges, juries and police. It remains one of the key indicators of the racism that festers in our judicial system and, as it has slowly but steadily slipped from the collective consciousness, it is time to readdress this horrendous injustice.
The details that surround this case require a larger platform than this petition allows so, for a more thorough description of the events of October 7th, 1974 and the court proceedings that followed, please refer to Amnesty International's report on the case which can be found at freegarytyler.com/writings/amnesty.html
Join us in attempting to make Gary Tyler a free man once again.
