LaKeith Smith could spend 30 years in an Alabama prison for murder, despite not killing anyone. His story deserves to be heard.

Alabama’s obsession with imposing excessive sentences are the primary reasons the Alabama Department of Corrections is significantly overcrowded.

New legislation would help put an end to extreme sentences based on a technicality. vote YES on HB 382! Repjustice.org/hb382

Last Wednesday’s hearing on HB382 was a powerful moment for the Justice4LaKeith Coalition. LaKeith’s mom, Brontina Smith spoke truth to power in a roomful of legislators with the power to support changing Alabama’s Felony Murder Rule.

We were sad to learn that HB 382 will not be moving forward this session but the fight is not over! Following the committee hearing, legislators on both sides expressed an interest in wanting to work together on the bill but need additional time to get more information.

A letter to You, from LaKeith! He’s been locked up since he’s 15 years old (over 8 years) because the cops killed his friend. He is often relying on his family, friends, and community to share his story. But here you have it, in LaKeith’s own words. Please share his story!

LaKeith Smith could spend the rest of his life in an Alabama prison for a murder he did not commit. His case urgently deserves our attention, as there is a possibility that his conviction could be overturned or his sentence reduced..
