Genarlow Wilson March 1

Posted by Such A Southern Girl (Atlanta, United States) on 17 July 2007 in People & Portrait and Portfolio.

On July 5th, citizens from around Georgia gathered in Douglasville to hold a prayer vigil for a young man by the name of Genarlow Wilson. He was convicted, as a teen, for having oral sex with another teen two years younger than him and sentenced to 10 years in prison. The law has been changed during the 2 years he's been locked up, but try as they might his attorney, the parents of the girl, even the judge can't seem to get his sentence overturned. It's truly sad. This is #1 in the series.
