DAY OF GLOBAL RALLIES IN SUPPORT OF MARISSA ALEXANDER AND VICTIMS OF DOMESTIC ABUSE

(Jacksonville,Florida)  –  6/12/12 --- Marissa Alexander, a victim of domestic abuse is an African American mother of  three. Marissa completed a Bachelor's degree and furthered her education with the completion of an MBA. Today, Marissa sits in a Florida prison. 

Marissa sought immunity under Florida's 'Stand Your Ground' statute and did not receive it. Her violent husband, Edward Rico Gray, a serial abuser of women did not have a scratch on him nor was he harmed in any way, however, Marissa, who he has beaten on multiple occasions, is in prison for firing a warning shot to prevent another attack from him.

We need your support to help free Marissa! Sunday June 24, 2012 is designated as a Global Day of Rallies In Support Of Marissa Alexander and all victims of domestic violence.


The Committee To Free Marissa Alexander is sponsoring a Freedom Rally and Motorcycle Fundraiser  in Angel Square, 5133 Soutel Drive, Jacksonville, Florida at 2:PM . The Committee is also requesting that rallies are hosted across the United States and abroad, in support of Freedom For Marissa Alexander and Victims of Domestic Abuse who languish in prison.
