Everyone knows who Michael Shields is. His story has touched the world. It was announced today that he was found guilty (of a crime that he did not commit) and has been sentenced to 15 years.
I am Michael's age. I couldn't cope if I was in a foreign country and found guilty of a crime that I didn't commit.
Stories have been released and they tell of his distress and torture while under arrest. Michael was in prison for 2 months before his trial started.
The family have about 3 days to start the appeal proceedings because the courts in Bulgaria are having a 2 month break.
Michael has the whole of Liverpool supporting him. The UK Government could be having talks with the Bulgarian Government so that maybe Michael could be given bail so that he can come home.
I study Law, but I think I will discontinue my studies. I wanted to do Law to make a difference. I wanted to help the good people and put the bad people away. In this case, it's reverse. The good has been punished.

"An innocent voice is louder than a crowd" - soon, Michael's voice will be heard and soon he will be home.
