Omnípotens sempitérne Deus, qui gloriósum beátum Antónium, váriis tentatiónibus probátum, inter mundi hujus túrbines illæsum abíre fecísti: concéde fámulis tuis; ut et præcláro ipsíus proficiámus exémplo, et a præséntis vitæ perículis ejus méritis et intercessióne liberémur. Per Christum Dóminum nostrum. Amen.

Cyntoia Brown (29 years old now) was 16 years old when she was imprisoned for killing a 43 year old man in self defense. 

She’s been ordered to serve 51 years in prison before becoming eligible for parole. The Tennessee Governor can grant her clemency and free her before he leaves office in January. 

Contact Tennessee Governor and urge him to grant clemency for Cyntoia before he leaves office. Call, write letters, send emails:
