Mrs. Johnson is a wonderful speaker and I am happy to have finally witnessed her tell her story.

[rfwshpe]

Wow, and I thought life has been hard on me, I know nothing of pain and suffering ! Mrs Johnson you are much stronger than me, and you are not bitter. I am humbled in your presence. God love you 😘

Bill Clinton signed into law a law that imposed harsh sentences and Trump signed into law the criminal justice reform bill.

[lukelucy]

The great Liberal's Clinton and Obama Stuck her there.

Thank You American Thought Leaders for this interview with Alice Johnson. I heard about her story when she was at the WhiteHouse.
One thing I feel we need to do is listen to each others stories more. Life experiences mold who we are. We can do so much better as a Nation if we just listen. This is the perfect example of HOW we can treat each other, in how Jan sits and asks a question, but then listens as the person says what they need to say. Thank you so much!

I've just been recruited for the cause! Criminal Justice Reform 🙏

[michaelboyd]

Bravo Alice! Cases like this should have the judges and prosecutors up for review for prosecutorial misconduct. They had the power to do the right thing and abused that power!

[markpowell]

Amazing that she can come out after an act of miss judgement and still laugh without hate in her heart !

[rdkuless]

Until you have walked a mile in someone's shoes. Even when Alice Johnson was told there was no hope, she had faith. What a story.

[adama]

She was in jail, and Hildawg is free. The system has no corruption.

[kerry]

What an incredible woman. She doesn't appear to be embittered by her tragic experiences, but puts all her energy into helping others. I wish her well.

[timthemechanix]

Amazing story, I'm so glad you are free. To keep faith and hope alive for 22 years truly a miracle, thank you for sharing it to the world. I have been blessed with many miracles in my life that can be explained in no other ways than as miracle. God gets the glory in mine as I'm sure He does in yours. It shines like a beacon through you. God bless you, my friend.

[e.m.]

Thank God! Miss Alice is good, good people. God bless you, Ma'am!

[TinyGrandma]

My God! What a travesty! Thank God this lovely lady is finally home! 🙏🙏🙏

[Mr.E.Shoppa]

Thank you for this important story. With all the undeserved pardons granted by Barack Obama, how could he have ignored the case of this woman?

[katmd]

That is a miracle and such a blessing. Praise God. He is so good. Please live your life to the fullest and I am so very sorry the evil system took so much of your young life from you. You are beautiful and have a beautiful spirit. God Bless you.

God bless America, president Trump and Alice Johnson
