A California family has taken a unique approach to seek justice by launching a billboard campaign in Olive Branch, Mississippi, targeting Alice Marie Johnson, known as America's Pardon Czar. The billboard, located on Hwy 78 towards Memphis, Tennessee, carries a message of hope and a plea for help, directing viewers to PardonMazzei.com for more information on their case.
Chris and Erin Mazzei, small business owners and parents, describe their ordeal as a consequence of a broken system, alleging they were pressured into a plea deal by federal prosecutors. Their story has already garnered attention from political commentator Roger Stone, who featured Chris Mazzei on his national radio show and wrote about their case in an article titled 'A Modern-Day Railroading'.
In their efforts to seek clemency, the Mazzeis have not only erected the billboard but also sent hundreds of packets detailing their case to Johnson and other influential figures within the Trump-aligned clemency movement. The White House, along with Pam Bondi, Ed Martin, and Kash Patel, have been informed about their situation, with Patel's office confirming the forwarding of materials to the Los Angeles FBI office for potential investigation.
The billboard, set to remain up for the coming months, represents the family's last resort to draw attention to their plight. 'We didn't know what else to do. This billboard is our way of saying, 'Please — just look at what happened to us,'' Erin Mazzei expressed from her prison camp. The family hopes this campaign will initiate a dialogue with Johnson or members of President Trump's team, leading to a review of their case.
