Thank you for taking the time to read our story. Please help if you can! Before this conviction, my wife has had a completely clean record, no arrests whatsoever. My wife had a very rough background, and mental illness including schizophrenia & ptsd, and had been in the army, she is also transgender. She had been able to keep a job & home most of her life. She had been medicated, and ok, and even had been helping me as a friend before we were together, raise my first daughter, until she married a very abusive person, and lived with him & his roommate who got her addicted to drugs, and violently abused, and stalked her for years on end. Multiple people tried getting her help, from the mental health resources here, and kept getting turned down, even though she was showing signs of worsening mental illness. The men keeping her hooked on a bad drug, along with sexually, mentally, and physically abusing her. We have a lot of witnesses, friends, and loved ones who were seeing this happen. One of the nights she had disappeared, and her ex husband whom she was trying to divorce, the man who had been his roommate lured her yet again over to his house, and again convinced her to use drugs which caused her to start hallucinating badly. He again, tried to again, sexually assault her, and she freaked out, and shot the man with his own guns that he had laying out in the apartment. She tried to turn herself in multiple times (there are records of this) and the police turned her away, due to knowing she had mental problems, they didn't believe her. Days later, they arrested her. It took years in county jail, and the mental hospital, and medication for her to be able to be fit for trial, and by the time she was ok, they had her take her NGRI test, and told her how she should do it (the wrong way) causing her to fail it. Needless to say, they never found the gun, and never even asked her where it was, either. The entire thing was done weirdly. She was put in a dangerous area of county jail for multiple years, and she is a very feminine, transitioned transgender woman, who was surrounded by men, and scared for her life. After years of them delaying her trials, her being terrified of where she was, she wanted out. We were poor, and only had a crappy public defender who did nothing. The victim had a rich family, and made it out to be that she shot the victim for no reason, and NOT ONCE was she allowed to bring up that she had been being raped! She was scared, and being told to keep her mouth shut, and she did. She was being put on medication for her to be able to be fit for trial, and by the time she was ok, they had her take her NGRI test, and told her how she should do it, claiming she should answer the way she feels MEDICATED, NOT the way she was during the crime! (the wrong way) causing her to fail it, even though she was supposed to be put in mental healthcare, NOT prison. NOT ONCE did they mention the drugs found on the victim, and NOT ONCE was she allowed to bring up that she had been being abused! The entire time, the victims family was allowed to speak about him, and to transbash her, and talk about how they wanted her to get killed in prison, yet none of us were even allowed to speak for her. We were told she would get 10 yrs and likely get manslaughter, and at the last minute she got a new judge, and got 14.5 yrs and 2nd degree murder. She was put into a MENS prison, even though she is transitioned into a woman, and has been for YEARS. This entire thing is disgusting, and has ruined our lives. She has been my best friend for 11 years, and I know what kind of person she is, and its not who they made her out to be. She has been locked up since our youngest daughter was a month old, and now she will be 5 this year :( I see her 4x a week, and she tries to stay strong, but its killing her. She did not deserve to be punished for stopping the abuse being done to her, after being victimized for years on end! She has been victimized in prison multiple times, and she desperately needs help. Now, with the covid 19 epidemic, her life is at risk, and I am unable to even see her. She has already served 5 years of this! The justice system really failed us, PLEASE help our family :( we are desperate to get a GOOD lawyer, and get this terrible case reopened, so she can have an actual shot at getting her life back. She deserves to be at home with her wife, and 2 kids, and not being severely punished for being victimized. I am her wife, a chronically ill mother of 2, barely scraping by, but doing everything I can to get her through this tragedy. Please help us get a chance to get the life we deserve.
