Bobby Bostic by Damien Linnane

This is Bobby Bostic. Bobby was sentenced to 241 years in prison for two robberies he committed on the same day as a child. Nobody was seriously injured. He has now been in prison in Missouri for 25 years, and is serving the longest sentence ever given there to a juvenile for non-homicide offenses. You can read Bobby's full story on Wikipedia or BBC News, among other sources.

 

Even the judge who sentenced Bobby, Evelyn Baker, has publicly stated she regrets giving him such a harsh sentence, and is now campaigning for his release. None of Bobby's victims are opposed to him being granted clemency, and some have written letters of support for his release.
