Along with our geniune sympathy for the family and friends of the victims, we the undersigned are also extremely concerned that a terrible injustice has been done to Lonnie LaBonte, TDCJ #1003685. We strongly believe in his innocence and pray that in the interest of truth and justice the State of Texas will vacate the conviction and subsequent sentence, or at a minimum grant an evidentiary hearing.

In the absence of relief sought being granted, that of vacating of conviction and sentence or an evidentiary hearing, we plead for a full and unconditional pardon be granted Lonnie Ray Allen LaBonte post haste.
