Description

Hey Breakdown Crew! We've been rocking together now for over 4 years and have gotten SO MUCH good done together. Today is one of those days where I need each of us to show up, OK?
Have you heard the name LaKeith Smith?
When he was just a 15 year old boy, police shot and killed his best friend, but prosecutors then went and charged LaKeith, who they openly admit was unarmed and non-violent, with his murder. It's an abomination. I already hate the felony murder rule, but I have NEVER seen it applied in this outrageous fashion.
LaKeith was then sentenced to nearly 70 years in prison after police shot and killed his friend.
And I have promised his dear mother, Tina, that we would raise enough money for her to take off of work for the next year so that she can fight full time to get her son free.
Please, go now to my Instagram page, and CLICK THE LINK IN MY BIO to chip in. We're already past 50% of the goal but predict we need 1,800 more donors to cross the finish line.
Let's do this!
