KING BROTHERS' RALLY FOR JUSTICE SCHEDULED

PENSACOLA, FL - October 15, 2002 /PRnetwire.com/ - Citizens from around the US are gathering in Pensacola for a rally in support of Justice for Florida's children and to show support for Alex and Derek King. Distinguished speakers include Cathy Corry (www.justice4kids.org), Joyce Tracy (King brothers' grandmother), Lynn Schwarz (jury fore-person), Rev. Thomas Masters (Under our Wings) and other guests concerned about the persecution of children as adults.

When:

Thursday, October 17 at 9:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m.

Where:

M.C. Blanchard Judicial Building, 190 Government Street, Pensacola, Florida

Background:

Concerned citizens and individuals from around the world remain focused in their efforts to seek reform in the Florida judicial system. A "Caravan of Hope" starting in Arizona, will travel eastward through Missouri and North Carolina gaining force as they assimilate more supporters in the trail of vehicles as they descend on Pensacola for the October 17 rally. Support groups for Alex and Derek King began almost immediately on Internet chat groups and bulletin boards that evolved into a worldwide coalition. Its main goal is to bring justice to the King Brothers and a sense of what is right and proper back to the people of Florida and the country.

The coalition involvement has resulted in a massive number of e-mails, and letters to the governor, legislators, and judges to protest this injustice. This coalition will not stop until justice is reached in the King Brothers case and Alex and Derek receive a fair trial.
