Benjamin Thomas hasn't added a story.
Benjamin Thomas was charged in February 2017 for a crime he didn't commit. After suffering a panic attack during police interrogation, detectives placed him under so much stress and emotional strain that he made a false confession. The next day, the same detective met with the alleged victim and used the same psychological attacks to get a false corroboration. After tens of thousands of dollars already paid in legal fees, the Thomas family is unable to come up with enough funds to get Mr. Thomas the legal representation that he desperately needs in order to maintain his freedom, and not be punished for a crime he didn't commit.
Friends, family, his life need not be further hindered by his coerced testimony. If convicted, he faces a punishment of up to 7 years in prison and will be a felon for the rest of his life, destroying any chances of success. Every year thousands of people are wrongfully convicted based on coerced and false confessions. Join this fight and help keep one more innocent person from being convicted.
Anything donated will be greatly appreciated and will help Mr. Thomas in the fight for his freedom. All proceeds will go towards any legal fees.
In advance, thank you.
