Life of a Lifer - Torie Chrisholm

Torie Chisholm is a mentor and teacher for the nonprofit organization Second Chance Quest created by inmates and their families in 2015. He has been also a GED tutor.

Torie has been Incarcerated since he was 15 years old at the Virginia Department of Corrections, 17 years later,  he's now 32. He has a strong network of advocates who argue he got a harsh sentence:  his crime didn't include murder or rape, still the state of Virginia gave him 47 years in prison. 

In his wife words: "I ask could you please help him to fight his case so that he could get out of prison he has 2 kids that had to grow up without their father their whole life I feel as though the state of Virginia was too harsh on him by locking him up at 15 and trial him as an adult." 

He has started a petition and is receiving letters to the governor of Virginia from highly respected individuals, please joining the petition so his loved ones can file for clemency or as well so the governor of Virginia can look at his case!
