Share His Story

Reposting Tim’s story on your social media accounts or writing to your representatives to tell them about the injustices Tim has suffered can go a long way in supporting the movement for his freedom.

Recently, wrongful conviction campaigns have relied heavily on pressure from citizens through social media to show government officials that serious injustices have occurred under their watch.
