This hit close to home. I am also a 19-year-old Alachua county, FL college student.


I would also like to introduce Jerry Sledge, loving father of 4. In his mid fifties he was found guilty of cultivation and given a minimum of 10 years in prison. He did not see his third son graduate highschool. He will not see his second son and I married. His daughter will have no father to see her to her first day of highschool, or her graduation.

He is currently caught in the middle of the "system", in a mental facility in Miami, FL.
