   Christmas Behind Bars — The Cost of False Charges | Alabama Injustice

   Christmas Behind Bars — The Cost of False Charges | Alabama Injustice In Episode 2 of Alabama Injustice: The Silencing of Jerry Lee Clarke, we go inside the home where this case began. Jason visits the Clarke family property to speak with Janet Kay, Jerry Lee Clarke’s wife of more than 40 years, and Katherine Shelton, his daughter. Together, they recount the harassment, threats, and intimidation that followed a political sign placed on Jerry’s private property — a sign that was later vandalized, painted over, and ultimately became the center of a criminal case that landed Jerry in jail. This episode focuses on the human cost of the case: Christmas without a husband, grandchildren separated from their grandfather, a family living in fear, and a wife watching her husband’s health deteriorate behind bars under a $403,000 cash-only bond. Viewers also see the now-infamous sign still standing — painted white, but left up as a matter of principle. Janet and Katherine describe repeated pleas for help, alleged inaction by authorities, escalating harassment by individuals outside their neighborhood, and why they refused to take the sign down even after Jerry’s arrest. The episode raises urgent questions about First Amendment rights, property rights, excessive bail, and whether dissenting voices are being punished rather than protected. This series is for educational purposes and relies on publicly available news reporting, court records, and firsthand interviews. All individuals are presumed innocent unless proven guilty, and details may evolve as the legal process continues. 📌 For additional context, read the AL.com article: https://www.al.com/news/2025/12/how-did-an-anti-trump-sign-dispute-escalate-and-send-an-alabama-man-to-jail.html 📌 Jerry Lee Clarke remains incarcerated while legal expenses and daily living costs continue to mount for his family.

   Freedom of Speech is NOT Free | The Silencing of Jerry Lee Clarke

   Freedom of Speech is NOT Free | The Silencing of Jerry Lee Clarke In this premiere episode of Alabama Injustice, we sit down with Katherine Shelton, the daughter of Jerry Lee Clarke, to tell the story of how her father’s exercise of free speech turned into a life-altering nightmare. Jerry Lee Clarke, a 66-year-old Alabama man, placed an anti-Trump sign on his own private property. What followed was months of harassment, vandalism, threats, and escalating pressure from neighbors and law enforcement. Instead of protection, Jerry was arrested, charged, and jailed — where he remains on an extraordinarily high bond, raising serious questions about due process, First Amendment rights, and unequal treatment under the law. Katherine shares the devastating impact this has had on their family, including concerns about Jerry’s deteriorating health while in custody, limited access to medical care, and the emotional toll on his wife, children, and grandchildren. This episode walks through the events leading up to his arrest, the charges he faces, and why the family believes this case is about silencing dissent rather than public safety. This series is for educational purposes and relies on publicly available news reporting, court records, and firsthand interviews. All individuals are presumed innocent unless proven guilty, and details may evolve as the legal process continues. 📌 For additional context, read the AL.com article: https://www.al.com/news/2025/12/how-did-an-anti-trump-sign-dispute-escalate-and-send-an-alabama-man-to-jail.html 📌 Jerry Lee Clarke remains incarcerated while legal expenses and daily living costs continue to mount for his family.

   Alabama Injustice (Trailer)

   We are launching a special investigative series on the Raised Red Living Blue Podcast network focused on the case of Jerry Lee Clarke in Shelby County, Alabama — a case that raises serious questions about free speech, due process, jail conditions, and proportional justice. Jerry Lee Clarke has been incarcerated for months following a neighborhood dispute that escalated far beyond reason. What followed — the charges, the bond, the treatment while in custody — deserves public scrutiny. And that scrutiny is coming. Let’s be clear: This is not about theatrics. This is about accountability. To those who mishandled this case, dismissed legitimate concerns, or assumed no one was watching — people are watching now. Public opinion matters. Transparency matters. And silence is no longer an option. Justice does not fear daylight.
