About the founder:

Tyler King's life took a dramatic turn when he found himself at the center of a legal storm. Accused of a crime he didn't commit, Tyler's journey through the justice system became a test of his integrity and determination. His ex-girlfriend's actions, hacking her boss's email, led to a cascade of events that dragged Tyler into a legal battle with federal authorities.

Refusing to compromise his principles, Tyler refused to accept a plea deal despite the mounting pressure. He believed in his innocence and was determined to clear his name, no matter the odds. As the case unfolded, Tyler's resilience was tested as he navigated the complexities of the legal system, facing skepticism, doubt, and even condemnation from those around him.

Incarcerated and separated from his loved ones, Tyler's voice echoed from prison, a powerful testament to his unwavering belief in justice. He used his time behind bars to learn about the law, to fight for his rights, and to reach out to others who found themselves in similar situations. His story became a rallying cry for those who had been wrongfully accused and a source of inspiration for those who believed in the power of resilience.

As the evidence was reexamined and new information came to light, Tyler's dedication began to pay off. Slowly, the truth started to emerge, shedding light on the real perpetrator and exonerating Tyler from the false charges that had threatened to define his life.

Tyler's journey from being wrongly accused to emerging as a symbol of strength and justice showcased the importance of standing firm in the face of adversity. His story became a beacon of hope for those who had lost their voice, reminding them that even from the confines of a prison cell, one could still make a difference and ultimately find their way back to the truth.

MLK Day - Today we celebrate one of the greatest civil rights leaders to ever exist. Martian Luther King, Jr. changed this nation for the better.

It only takes one person, but the support of a nation, to change the path and make things right for everyone.

We are thankful for the diversity that exists and look forward to seeing all men (and women) as truly equal!
