Rally at the Capitol at Noon Friday, May 14th to Demand Justice for Innocent Michigan Prisoners Like Temujin Kensu
Paula Kensu and other organizers are holding a rally on the Capitol steps in Lansing at noon, May 14th for Temujin Kensu (Fred Freeman) and other prisoners who are innocent, medically frail or over-sentenced, and are unjustly being held in Michigan prisons. This rally will demand more funding, resources for the Attorney General’s Conviction Integrity Unit (CIU) created two years ago to investigate prisoners’ claims of innocence in Michigan.
The rally will include presentations by seven wrongfully convicted exonerees: Larry Smith, Ken Nixon, Julie Baumer, Eric Anderson, Lucino Hamilton, Marvin Cotton and Lamar Monson. Speakers will start at 12:30 p.m. then there will be a march around the capitol.
Bring comfortable shoes, signs and chairs. Signs designed by high school students on various prison reform issues will be provided. Snacks, water and free Temujin Kensu masks will be provided. For more information, contact Paul-Randolph Kensu: 810-712-7004.
There is overwhelming evidence that Temujin Kensu (Fred Freeman) has been in prison for 35 years for a crime he did not commit. The University of Michigan Innocence Project has been fighting for Mr. Kensu’s release for many of these years. I have been writing Temujin and have been appealing to Michigan Governors for his release. For a recent national news article about the history of Temujin Kensu, click HERE
