9 years and counting for stealing a mobile phone

clara  and family

I have been speaking to Clara who is fighting for her brothers release from his IPP nightmare. 

Clara had this article published in the media and has given us permission to share it.

9 years in custody is the equivalent at an 18 year determinate sentence, just let that sink in an 18 year prison sentence for stealing a mobile phone.

Again we accept that a custodial sentence was needed but not this, 9 years later and still there and its not over, its a long way from over for Thomas, Clara and their family. 

This is not a one off there are thousands of people just like Thomas and Clara trapped by this abolished sentence.

Read the article below and support us to address this injustice.
