Ferrell Scott is serving a life sentence for transporting marijuana. His mandatory life sentence is not because he has a dangerous or violent past, but because he declined a 12-year plea deal, thinking that was an excessive sentence for marijuana. His only other convictions were for small-time drugs, misdemeanors, and driving infractions. Even the former prosecutor in his case now acknowledges that a life sentence was too harsh.

Ferell is fighting for clemency to be reunited with his family and two kids, Skylar and Serrell.

Hear Ferrell's story in his own words, and the stories of others suffering from three-strikes laws.
