We Stand with Alisha Walker
Alisha Walker was sentenced to 15 years in prison for the stabbing death of Alan Filan, a teacher in a Catholic school. Filan had contracted Walker and another sex worker to come to his home for a sexual encounter.
According to Walker, Filan brandished a knife when he began to argue over the terms of the evening. Walker grabbed the knife during the struggle that broke out and by her account, stabbed him 14 times in self defense.
A group of Chicagoans gathered to denounce the 15 year sentence as a miscarriage of justice for a woman with a dangerous job who was only trying to defend herself.
