PRESS RELEASE
In a call for justice and a stand against violence, the Facebook group Justice for Jonathan Lewis Jr. brings to your attention a Rally for Justice, set for March 14th. Jonathan Lewis Jr., a teen from Rancho High School, lost his life tragically when attacked by 15 classmates in November last year.
The rally will take place in front of the courthouse between 7:45am and 8:45am, just before the 9am court hearing of some of the defendants involved in the case. The community is urged to join us, showing support for Jonathan's family and to demand justice for his untimely death.
Mellisa Lee Ready, mother of Jonathan, stated, "My son was not just a victim, he was a person, a loved individual. His life was not something to be taken lightly, and neither should be the punishment for his killers." Ready has been front and center in the fight for justice for her son, with a clear message: No plea deals. Maximum sentences.
The rally serves not only as an avenue for justice for Jonathan but as a broader stand against violence in our schools, promoting safety and security for all students. It sends a clear message: violence against any individual, especially a child, will not be tolerated, and those guilty must face the maximum sentences.
The community is called upon to join the rally, to stand with the family of Jonathan Lewis Jr., and send a clear message to the court - our children deserve to be safe, and those who threaten this safety must be held accountable. "We encourage everyone to join us in our fight for justice," said Ready. "Let's ensure our courts hear us loud and clear - No plea deals, only maximum sentences."
The Justice for Jonathan Lewis Jr. group on Facebook serves as a platform to share updates about the case, rally details, and ways to support the family. Join the group to stay informed and to show your support.
We remember Jonathan Lewis Jr. not as a victim, but as a vibrant young man whose life was cut short way too soon. Let us stand together for justice, not just for Jonathan, but for all the children who should be safe in their schools.
In the words of Mellisa Lee Ready, "This fight is bigger than just us. It's about securing a safe future for all our children."
Join us on March 14th in front of the courthouse before 9am. Stand with us, demand justice, demand no plea deals, demand maximum sentences. Because every child matters, and every child deserves justice.
