Bravo Coach Pierce!

Georgia Innocence Project

1 hr

Last night, Atlanta Hawks head coach Lloyd Pierce graciously hosted Georgia Innocence Project, exonerees and supporters (including NBA All Star Joe Barry Carroll) at the WNBA Atlanta Dream game. Here is Coach Pierce with several exonerees who spent a combined total of 142 years wrongfully imprisoned on crimes they did not commit. THANK YOU Coach Pierce for this wonderful opportunity and for helping to raise awareness about wrongful convictions.

Front row / kneeling: John White (22 years); Bobby Jean Johnson (41 years) 
Second row: Calvin Johnson (16 years, GIP Board member); Jimmie Gardner (27 years); Coach Pierce; Yvonne and Clarenece Harrison (Clarence - 17 years); Marquis Jackson (19 years).

Who ever said Joe Barely Cares?  Met JBC two years ago at the Decatur Book Festival, great guy who lives here locally and is an artist and an author these days.

LP is what we call Good People. Way to go!
