CYNTOIA BROWN-LONG

Tennessee’s Supreme Court has ruled that a state law mandating life sentences for juvenile homicide offenders is unconstitutional.

Brown-Long was tried as an adult and convicted of first-degree murder and aggravated robbery in 2006 without the possibility for parole until 2055. "There's school, there's neighborhood, there's what you're seeing in the media. "When you're doing time, your family is doing time with you. Why she wants to speak to her victim's familyAfter Brown-Long was granted clemency, the family of her victim released a statement. Brown-Long said she received letters from all over the world while she was incarcerated, but that Long's notes stood out.
