Religious
Leaders Request Commutation of Sentence for Sundiata Acoli!
We believe
that in a universe that bends toward justice, Sundiata Acoli deserves
to be at home with his family and live out his
final years
in his
community.
In June of 2020, nearly fifty
religious leaders from across New Jersey told New Jersey Governor Phil
Murphy when asking for a commutation of Sundiata’s
sentence:
“We, the undersigned clergy
of New Jersey write to express our collective support for the immediate
release of Sundiata Acoli from prison. We strongly
urge you to use your executive authority to do so. As faith leaders,
we believe in redemption and salvation - tenets that could not be more
appropriately
understood than in the case of this 83 year old man in failing
health who has been incarcerated for the past 48 years. Mr. Acoli is incarcerated
from
conviction of charges in the state of New Jersey and is currently
serving his sentence in a federal prison in Cumberland, MD.
We understand and appreciate
the seriousness of the crimes for which he was convicted. Our request
is in no way meant to denigrate the victims’ families
or ignore the loss of life. However, it is our belief that Mr. Acoli has
been more than adequately punished for those acts. The continued incarceration
of this senior citizen serves no useful purpose as Mr. Acoli represents
absolutely no threat to public safety. For more than 25 years he has had
a completely infraction free record in prison. This exemplary accomplishment
coupled with his age and the over 100 programs, classes and certificates
he has been awarded all provide ample reason for you to feel confident that
releasing him is the right and humane thing to do.” the statement
said in part.
With our collective prayers, diligent work and unyielding faith, we are
sure to #BringSundiataHome this year.
