Ryan Ferguson

[Actarius]

Hello, I would like to take this time to bring a certain court case to your attention.
Ryan Ferguson was 19 years old when he was arrested as a suspect for the murder of Kent Heitholt in 2005. With no eyewitnesses, no DNA, no motive, and no physical evidence, he was still convicted of second degree murder and sentenced 40 years in jail. He has been in jail since and is now 28. He has applied for appeals 13 times and they have all been denied. Please mmo-champion, I'm asking for your help. You can watch the report by 48 hours or sign the petition in the link below. By signing the petition he is one step closer to getting a new trial or possibly even freedom.

The cbs link links to a 48 minute video. I'm including a few news articles for those with less time.

I am not related to Ryan, and I have never had contact with him. I am posting this out of care and compassion.

Thank you so much.

I am including a poll

There's a small update to the articles, since they were published last year,

The judge from the evidentiary hearing, has decided to let Ryan's conviction stand. At this point, all witnesses have admitted to lying, and there is currently nothing even suggesting Ryan's guilt.
