California Family Seeks Justice Through Billboard Campaign Aimed at Alice Marie Johnson
A California family's billboard campaign in Mississippi seeks Alice Marie Johnson's support for clemency, highlighting their struggle with the federal justice system.
A California family has initiated a billboard campaign in Olive Branch, Mississippi, targeting Alice Marie Johnson, known as 'America's Pardon Czar,' in a desperate plea for justice. The billboard, located on Hwy 78 towards Memphis, Tennessee, carries a message of congratulations to Johnson and a request for her assistance, alongside a link to PardonMazzei.com.
Chris and Erin Mazzei, the family behind the campaign, describe themselves as victims of a misrepresented federal case, seeking clemency after what they claim was a coerced plea deal. Their situation has garnered attention from political figures and commentators, including Roger Stone, who has publicly supported their cause. The family has also distributed hundreds of documents detailing their case to Johnson and other influential figures within the clemency movement.
Erin Mazzei, speaking from a prison camp, explained the choice of Mississippi for the billboard as a direct appeal to Johnson's hometown roots. The family hopes this visibility will lead to a review of their case by Johnson or members of the Trump administration's clemency team. The billboard is set to remain displayed for several months, symbolizing the family's ongoing fight for justice and clemency.
