#Petition: Free India Spellman - Urge Philadelphia District Attorney Larry Krasner to Exonerate India Spellman

India Spellman was sentenced to life behind bars for a crime she did not commit–– all at 17 years old. India was a standout basketball player on her high school team with dreams of playing for the WNBA. Because of police misconduct, coercion, and fabricated testimony, she was accused and convicted of a crime she did not commit. India has a court date in a month and a half to prove her innocence. Sign India’s petition to set her free.

India Spellman is an innocent young woman who at the tender age of 17 had her freedom stolen from her through police misconduct, coercion, and fabricated testimony.

India had spent over a decade in SCI Cambridge Springs for a crime she did not commit or have any involvement in whatsoever. She was sentenced to a lifetime behind bars.

India was a standout basketball player on her high school team and she had dreams and aspirations of going to the WNBA and had never previously been in trouble with the law.

Here are 10 reasons why India Spellman should be exonerated.

1. India had alibi witnesses

2. India was at home on her cellphone and computer during the time of the crimes that she is being accused of.

3. Proof that India was at home on her cellphone at the time of the crime.

4. India does not fit the description of the female perpetrator described by the victims or eyewitnesses.

5. India was denied access to her parents during police custody and interrogation despite her being a juvenile.

6. India was forced to give a false confession.

7. Evidence was hidden during India’s trial that could have proved her innocence.

8. India was subject to physical and psychological abuse during her interrogation by Homicide Detectives.

9. The lead Detective that interviewed India and secured her false confession has since been arrested for perjury and obstructing justice.

10. The facts that India’s defense team has uncovered show that India Spellman is innocent beyond a reasonable doubt!

India’s dreams were snatched away and shattered in a blink of an eye. She was never given a fair chance to prove her innocence. All she wants is for the facts to be reviewed and justice given on the merits of the facts.
