| ************************************************************************* Det er altid en glæde når en af vores venner, en af de vi fører kampagne for, som nu Michael Pardue, eller en af de andre løslades fra dødsgangen. Men samtidig er der smerte og vemod i os fordi vi ved, at der sidder endnu flere uskyldige på dødsgangene i USA som mishandles, prygles, voldtages, nægtes lægehjælp, myrdes...osv... hvornår kommer retfærdigheden til dem? Hvem har interesse for dem? Reiner S. Goldau *************************************************************************** http://www.justicedenied.org/freeat.htm FREE AT LAST In February of 2001 Michael Rene Pardue finally became a free man.Read his inspiring story. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Free At Last is about the relatively small group of people who finally achieved the goal of freedom from the wrongs they suffered. We cannot call it "Justice at last" because it is no justice for an innocent to have to spend precious years of their lives fighting for a freedom which should never have been taken from them. Even so, there is cause to rejoice -- at least they are finally free. In many cases these wronged innocents step into a world of new bewilderment as they go back to families with fantasies only years of deprivation can conjure. At any rate, a family or circle to which they must adjust... or not. Some will emerge from prison without friends or family to welcome them, and they must begin a new battle. However, they are free, so rather than bemoan the fate which befell them or the hardships they face because of it, we celebrate their freedom and hope they will receive courage and strength from the knowledge that they have inspired others to hard work and faith towards their own freedom. We pay tribute to the men and women who have gained such a hard-fought freedom. May you grow, prosper, and grab every chance for happiness. The Justice Denied Team -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Michael Pardue Update By Anne Good In our first feature article about Michael Pardue (Michael's story), we asked the rhetorical question, "How many times must a man look up before he can see the sky?" We thought the answer was "blowing in the wind," but now the state of Alabama has finally given definition to that elusive question: it's twenty-eight years; it is 330 months; it is 10330 days. In February of 2001 Michael Rene Pardue finally became a free man. Pause for just a moment and think, really think, about TWENTY-EIGHT YEARS. In that time we all learned to walk, talk, and eat with utensils. Most of us completed grade school, high school, under graduate school, grad school, got married, had children, and moved upward in our chosen professions. It's almost a lifetime. When Michael went into prison at the tender age of seventeen: a. Computers were the size of a small house. The term "PC" didn't exist. b. Watergate was the name of an expensive and relatively unknown hotel in Washington DC c. US troops still occupied Vietnam. d. Bill and Hillary were going steady. e. Calculators were about to hit the market. f. Harry Truman was still alive. g. DNA was unheard of. h. Atari introduced an innovative game called "Pong" that could be played on a television set. i. Minimum wage was $1.75 j. AIDS was an unknown virus. Twenty-eight years is indeed a very long time. On February 16 at 5:00 p.m. Michael Rene Pardue finally walked out of prison -- free at last to look at the sky without razor wire in his view and handcuffs on his wrists. The staff at Justice: Denied takes great delight in wishing Michael well as he embarks on this new phase of his journey, with his wife Becky at his side. It has been a long, arduous battle fraught with many obstacles. Michael and Becky overcame them one by one, united by love and a quest for justice. In this world of instant gratification, let Michael remind us how to keep our "eyes on the prize." Let him inspire us to keep putting one foot in front of the other, even though we may feel like giving up. Let his journey prove to us that dreams do come true, even against all odds. However, as we share in this joyful celebration, let us not forget that twenty-eight years is a very, very long time. The face of the world has changed in three decades but one fact remains constant -- Michael was innocent when he walked into prison and he was innocent as he walked out.
