Johnson County Prosecutors

The Crucifixion of Daniel S. Jason would not be happening in any other part of the county. Only Johnson County would charge somebody with Asperger Syndrome with extortion charges. Amnesty International is outraged by this The Autism Society told me that this is the most egregious case in the country..Look how many people from Iowa have signed this petition. This over prosecution is an outrage that must be stopped. I have told people with autism to not go to Iowa because of these overzealous prosecutors and the Iowa City police force. I am a CPA with a Masters degree who heads up a NAMI affiliate and on the board of CURE Illinois in case you question my credentials. What has happened in Iowa is my family's holocaust. I vow that nobody else will have to go through what Daniel has gone through.
