From Death Row to Rehabilitation and Redemption

Antonio was convicted by a jury in a trial marked by outrageous prosecutorial misconduct. Because Antonio now had the conviction for the prison yard murder, he was sentenced to life without possibility of parole. Since his release in July 2012, Antonio has entered the world of what civil rights advocate and author Michelle Alexander calls the "new Jim Crow." Because of his felony convictions, it is lawful for him to be discriminated against in employment, housing, voting, and a number of other rights that most of us take for granted.
