Dear Friends & Supporters of Sundiata Acoli:
The New Jersey Appellate Court denied Sundiata's release on parole in a decision dated December 27, 2019. He gets a mandatory appeal to the New Jersey Supreme Court.
Sundiata's attorney, Bruce Afran, must get transcripts and will have other expenses, including printing, and of course his legal fees, as he prepares the next phase of this case. A minimum amount of $30,000 is the fundraising goal if Bruce is to pursue appeal to the NJ Supreme Court, and other legal avenues in addition to the appeal. He needs funds now. He has done a great job so far, on behalf of Sundiata, and no doubt will continue to do so.
Please give generously to ensure that lack of funds does not contribute to any delay in pursuing freedom for Sundiata, who is 83 years old and has been in prison for 47 years.
Sundiata deeply appreciates the support, and commitment to getting him released. Much thanks in advance, on his behalf.
